Thoughts on a 5-1 Rangers loss

Astros 5, Rangers 1

  • Thus endeth the winning streak.
  • It could’ve been worse. Early on in the game, I feared this was going to be one of those really bad Glenn Otto outings, after he started the game by allowing a leadoff double, and followed it up by a wild pitch and then a HBP. Two runs scored in the first off Otto, and it would have been more had Alex Bregman not been thrown out at third base for the second out. Otto allowed two more hits in the second, but escaped with no runs scoring when, on a two out Jose Altuve single that was kept in the infield, the Rangers caught Jose Siri rounding third way too far and ended up getting him for the third out.
