Unfortunately this will be a short one, since there isn’t much that needs recapped.
The Texas Rangers shut out the Cleveland Guardians in today’s rubber match. The Guardians scored no runs on 6 hits and no errors while the Rangers massively outscored Cleveland with 10 runs on 16 hits with no errors. Chase DeLauter, Angel Martínez, David Fry (PH for Steven Kwan), and Patrick Bailey all recorded single hits while Steven Kwan had a two-hit game. Travis Bazzana and Brayan Rocchio reached on walks.
