Saturday night's Rangers-Astros game was one of the weirdest exhibitions of baseball we've seen around Arlington in a while.
The five hit batters by Astros' pitchers was a club record for both Houston pitchers and Texas batters. According to baseball-reference.com, only one other team since 1908 has won a game when its pitchers have hit five or more batters: The Angels against the Athletics on June 7, 2001.
At least we kept it in the American League Wild Weird West.
Astros' starter Charlie Morton had four of the five HBPs, which ties an American League record.
