The Texas Rangers offense was at it again yesterday, pummeling the visiting Seattle Mariners, 16-6. Today Texas will go for a 3-game sweep of Seattle in a matinée at Globe Life Field. The Rangers have been on a roll, winners of 11 of their last 14, and will have their ace on the hill, Nathan Eovaldi. He is 7-2 with a 2.42 ERA, a 1.00 WHIP, and it gets better. Over his last 7 starts, Eovaldi is a perfect 5-0 with an ERA of only 1.20. The Mariners are expected to give the nod to the rookie, Bryce Miller, who is 3-2 with a 3.00 ERA and a 0.75 WHIP. Miller looked like the rookie that he is in his last turn against the Yankees on Monday, yielding 8 runs on 11 hits resulting in a Mariners 10-4 loss. Texas is arguably the best in baseball. They are 18-8 at home and should get to the rookie today.
