The Texas Rangers scored eight runs while the Athletics scored five runs.
It took Texas nearly a month but they finally scored enough runs to get you half price pizza at Papa Johns if you let your mind drift back to like 2011. The Rangers7 threshold was reached and exceeded for a season-high eight runs as the ball was flying out of the minor league park in West Sacramento that formerly Oakland is temporarily calling home.
After the most apparent lineup shakeup perhaps during Bruce Bochy’s time with Texas, the Rangers had ten hits in their first game against the A’s away from Oakland.
