The Rangers got a big three-run home run from Robinson Chirinos with two outs to cap off a four-run 1st inning. Ultimately, that would be all Colby Lewis and the bullpen would need.

This was also the first time the Rangers won a road game since June 16.

Reminder: Tomorrow's game begins at 12:10 CT.

Player of the Game: Lewis now has three consecutive starts without allowing a walk. During that span, he's struck out 21 hitters. Colby is quietly starting to have a nice season for a guy with a cyborg hip.
