The Texas Rangers scored three runs while the Tampa Bay Rays did not score.
After starting the season a demoralizing 6-14 through the first 20 games, the Rangers have made the climb all the way back to even in the standings with a 17-10 month of May. That Texas was able to get back to .500 for the first time since they were 18-18 on May 9, 2021, before the calendar has flipped over to June, is rather remarkable.
Even more so, they did it with Martin Perez once again turning in a dominant performance as he stakes a legitimate claim to being the best pitching in the American League in 2022.
