Rangers Lose Again to Astros

While the Texas Rangers lost the Silver Boot Series this season against the Houston Astros on Friday night, they were looking to rebound at Daikin Park on Saturday night.

Unfortunately, that did not happen.

Jacob deGrom only got through 3.1 innings against the Astros, giving up seven hits, five earned runs, five walks, and three strikeouts. Steven Okert took the win in relief for Houston.

Wyatt Langford and Elias Diaz had home runs for Texas in the 5-4 defeat. Langford now has 13 home runs this season, while Diaz now has five dingers.

The Astros have won this weekend series and go for a sweep on Sunday afternoon. Kumar Rocker gets the start for Rangers manager Skip Schumaker. Peter Lambert will start for Houston.
