Dillon Gee wasn’t sure if and when he’d get a chance to start for the Texas Rangers. That it comes against his old team, the New York Mets, might be seen as fate to some.
Not to Gee.
“It’s just a coincidence,” Gee said about Tuesday night’s start at Globe Life Park. “I just look at it as any other start. I just have to go out there and give the team a chance to win.”
Gee grew up a fan of the Rangers in nearby Cleburne, Texas, so the start in the two-game interleague series opener will be well attended by family and friends.
