The Rangers are really showing Tim Bogar how it’s done this last week or so. Texas has now lost seven straight and are seven games below .500 for just the second time this season and first time since May 8.

Make it seven straight losses to the Oakland A’s, as well as Texas is guaranteed a losing record against Oakland with their tenth loss in the season series.

It’s not like the Rangers are almost in last place in the American League West, th....oh...

Player of the Game: The Rangers had hit four singles and Miguel Gonzalez pitched most of the game, so you tell me.

Up Next: Martin Perez will make his final start of the 2017 season against Raul Alcantara of Oakland. You may recall Alcantara as they guy with an 8.00 ERA a few starts in his big league career who didn’t allow a run to the Rangers last week. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 pm CT!!
