The Rangers went 6-4 on their homestand but it won’t have that winning feeling. After sweeping the Royals in a four-game set, the Rangers went 2-4, including Sunday’s 5-2 loss to the Angels at Globe Life Park. The Rangers begin a four-game series against the Astros at Minute Maid Park on Monday night.
How Rangers pitchers fared: Martin Perez allowed four runs on eight hits and four walks over 5 2/3 innings. Kole Calhoun homered to center in the third to tie it at 1-1. They took a 3-1 lead with two un the fifth after Martin Maldonado and Yunel Escobar started the inning with a single and double.
