Rainout forces Rangers to make changes for doubleheader, Yankees

The rain that ruined Tuesday night— and made for a long Wednesday — didn’t have a major effect on the Texas Rangers’ game planning, but there were a few things that changed despite not having a game.

Perhaps not so subtle is that the Rangers will now need their No. 5 starter Sunday. Miguel Gonzalez was scheduled to throw Tuesday and Sunday against the New York Yankees, but won’t be available until Monday after pitching Game 1.

So, Nick Martinez or A.J. Griffin will likely start the finale against the Yankees.

“We have a few different candidates,” manager Jeff Banister said.
