51-53 - Martin Perez throws a gem for Rodney, Rangers take series

Martin Perez stars on the mound for the Rangers as Texas takes the series from the Giants

I'M CHOOSING TO IGNORE THE ENTIRE 9TH INNING AND YOU ARE REQUIRED TO DO THE SAME

Here's a fun fact: In the six games of the current homestand for the Rangers prior to today, the team that scored first had lost all six games. I guess that's why the Rangers were reluctant to plate that first run today as they stranded a bunch of runners in the first few innings. Maybe they realized around halfway through that Martin Perez wasn't going to allow a reliever to touch a ball today and decided they might as well get him a run.
