Texas Rangers lineup for June 26, 2021 against the Kansas City Royals: starting pitchers are RHP Kyle Gibson for the Rangers and RHP Kyle Zimmer for the Royals.

The Rangers had one of their more productive days at the plate yesterday as they put nine runs on former teammate Mike Minor in yesterday’s win. They’ll attempt to carry that over today against a Kyle (Zimmer) for the Royals with their own top Kyle (Gibson) ready for a shot at his sixth win of the season.

The Rangers will be sporting what should be considered essentially their basic lineup with Nate Lowe bumped up to the second spot in the order as he’s slashing .423/.483/.654 over the last week of games.

The lineup:

  1. Isiah Kiner-Falefa — SS
  2. Nate Lowe — 1B
  3. Adolis Garcia — CF
  4. Joey Gallo — RF
  5. Eli White — LF
  6. Willie Calhoun — DH
  7. Nick Solak — 2B
  8. Brock Holt — 3B
  9. Jose Trevino — C

Today’s game will be featured on FS1 with a first pitch scheduled for 3:05 pm CT. The Rangers will sport their red caps with their home whites and the roof at The Shed will be closed because having AC is why the place was built in the first place.
