Thoughts on a 4-2 Rangers loss
Marlins 4, Rangers 2
38-42 – Rangers receive wake-up call with 4-2 finale loss to Marlins
The Texas Rangers scored two runs but the Miami Marlins scored four runs. It was a Texas Rangers game in 2026 so saying “it was kind of an annoying game” should be assumed by default but today’s game was kind of annoying. In addition to it beginning in the ante meridiem, which made it annoying […]

Thoughts on a 6-4 Rangers loss
Rangers 6, Marlins 4
38-41 – Rangers waste early chances, fall to Marlins 6-4
