The Texas Rangers scored four while the Tampa Bay Rays scored one run.
The Rangers got a solo home run from Corey Seager and for much of the afternoon that was it from the bats who had gone a bit cold at the Trop. Luckily for them, they had Nathan Eovaldi on the mound as he tossed seven shutout innings as we supped on vintage October brand Eovaldi in today’s finale.
Shades of World Series Game 5, the Rangers needed those zeros as the lineup waited until the ninth inning to come alive a bit with a rally that produced three runs while the Rays got sloppy on defense.
