Rangers Push for Playoff Push

Rain delays the Rangers’ showdown with the Royals, but don’t worry—first pitch’s just a little later. After bouncing back from a rough Astros series, Texas has crushed KC and taken two of three from the Cardinals and Guardians. Jake Burger and Elias Diaz delivered heroics yesterday, and Burger’s back in the lineup at first base while Diaz handles the catching duties. Joc Pederson’s out with hip discomfort, so Wyatt Langford leads off with Seager and Jung following. Nicky Lopez shines at second base, hitting over .300 since joining. The pressure’s on Seager to find his groove after a slow start. Kumar Rocker takes the mound hoping to turn his road woes around. After this series, the Rangers head to Boston for a showdown with the Red Sox. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
