Game 160: Rangers at Twins
The Rangers come to town and we learn about a Ranger statue put up this year at Globe Life Park.
The Texas Rangers and Minnesota Twins faced off in Game 160, both in pursuit of the final AL playoff spot. Weather conditions were perfect for the game, with a temperature of 67 degrees at the Lone Star Ball stadium. Texas starter Jacob deGrom, a veteran at 38, threw a 3.86 ERA and 3.11 FIP, striking out 11.12 per nine innings. The Rangers have not demanded a new stadium for nearly a decade, and while renovations are likely in the works, they have provided funds for their own upgrades.
The team unveiled a decorative statue called "One Riot, One Ranger," which was modeled after Texas Ranger Jay Banks.
