A home series against the Houston Astros was highly anticipated by Texas Rangers nation. Texas had won 11 of their past 14 games and curiosity grew as to whether or not the hot streak could continue against the American League West’s best. Unfortunately, it could not.
The Rangers got swept in the two-game series against the Astros. It was their first series loss since getting swept by the Los Angeles Dodgers back on June 12th-13th. Though both games were close against Houston, it is clear the Rangers are still the inferior squad. This isn’t exactly breaking news as they are 18.
