The Texas Rangers are on a roll as they aim to match their season-high winning streak of five games by sweeping the spiraling Chicago White Sox in Arlington, Texas. The Rangers have been on fire lately, winning 11 of their last 15 games and closing in on the top spot in the AL West.
In their most recent game, a 10-2 victory over the White Sox, Corey Seager and Nathaniel Lowe led the way with impressive performances. Seager homered and had four hits, while Lowe drove in four runs to help secure the win for Texas.
Adolis Garcia also showed signs of breaking out of his slump with a three-hit performance, including an RBI double in the fifth inning. The Rangers’ offense was firing on all cylinders, with contributions from multiple players throughout the lineup.
Manager Bruce Bochy praised his team’s offensive output, noting that they are “heating up at the right time.” The Rangers are in a good position to make a push for a playoff spot, sitting just three games behind the division-leading Houston Astros and 5 1/2 games out of a wild-card spot.
On the other side, the White Sox are struggling, having lost 10 straight games and sitting 50 games below .500. General manager Chris Getz acknowledged the team’s challenges but remains focused on finding ways to improve.
The White Sox will look to turn things around against veteran right-hander Max Scherzer, who has had some struggles recently but has a strong track record against Chicago. The Rangers will counter with rookie right-hander Jonathan Cannon, who will be looking to bounce back from a tough outing in his last start.
It promises to be an exciting matchup between two teams heading in different directions. The Rangers will look to continue their winning ways and solidify their playoff hopes, while the White Sox will be desperate to snap their losing streak and salvage what remains of a difficult season.
