The most stunning aspect of the Texas Rangers’ victory Friday night is that it came in the first rain-shortened game in Globe Life Park history.
File that one under Strange but True, especially with how much it can rain at one time in the Metroplex.
By first pitch Saturday, though, the field was in tip-top condition. That’s a credit to Dennis Klein and his crew of groundskeepers, whose jobs are going to get easier once the place across the street is built thanks to the retractable roof.
Their jobs will get a lot easier if the Rangers go with artificial turf instead of grass.
