Duran’s 3 RBI Help Rangers Avoid Sweep in Milwaukee
from Right on Rangers LIVE! Hosted by Austin Beckman
Ezequiel Duran drove in three and Texas scored in five different innings to beat Milwaukee 7-4, snap a four-game skid and avoid the sweep. Austin gets into Duran’s Rangers Player of the Year case, why this looked more like the varied offense Texas has been trying to build, and why Kumar Rocker’s seven-strikeout, four-walk, three-inning start still wasn’t a good outing. He also digs into what Josh Jung’s return could mean for Duran, Cody Freeman and Evan Carter, whether Rocker needs Triple-A refinement instead of a bullpen role, how much the Rangers’ future depends on Sebastian Walcott and Wyatt Langford, the case for rebooting the hitting operation, and the looming Oakland series with Jacob deGrom on the mound.
