64-66 – Rangers remain buns with the bats, fall 3-0 to Angels
Please look away, 1996 legends
On August 22, 2026, the Texas Rangers fell into a 3-0 series defeat against the Los Angeles Angels at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. The Rangers, honoring their 1996 club, struggled mightily, scoring just one run all game and failing to find the infield. In contrast, the Angels' leadoff man, Zach Neto, went 3-for-4 with two extra base hits, including a double in the game's first at bat.
The Rangers' lone hit came from their No. 8 hitter, Cody Freeman, a single in the sixth inning. This victory solidified the Angels' status as the team with the best record in the American League West. The Rangers, on the other hand, have yet to score in regulation since Thursday, and their season total of 516 runs stands a significant drop from the 1996 team's 928 runs.
The Rangers' next home game against the Angels is slated for tomorrow at 1:35 pm CDT, with Texas pitching to an unnamed opponent from Anaheim. The match will be broadcast on the Rangers Sports Network.
