Rangers Struggle as Pitching Falters | Texas Rangers News

The Rangers’ road trip hit rock bottom as they dropped a brutal 10-4 series finale against the White Sox, despite trotting out ace Jacob deGrom and solid starter MacKenzie Gore. DeGrom surrendered a career-high-tying eight runs, while Gore, who’d been pitching well, faltered badly — admitting he didn’t have his stuff and that the whole team felt off. Offensively, they struggled to capitalize, leaving 12 runners stranded after drawing walks early but only scoring two runs on a solo homer. Though their performance in key situations isn’t as bad as it looks — ranking league-average — the disconnect between offense and pitching is alarming. With 28 games left and just a half-game behind the Astros, the Rangers need to turn it around fast if they want a shot at the playoffs. They’ve got an off-day to regroup before heading to Milwaukee.
