Rangers Take the first of 4

After the Halos came off a huge win last night against the Dodgers, they fell short of the Rangers tonight. Following a rough 1st inning for Kochanowicz giving up a 3 run HR to Adolis Garcia he had a pretty decent start.

Even with the Angels making a few errors through the duration of his start he was able to weave through traffic and end his outing with, 6IP, 8 hits, 3 runs and 1BB. He did give up quite a few hits but he got out of the jam every inning but the first for a quality start. Neto and Stefanic rolled this double play to get out of the 5th.

The Angels offense tonight was held to a minimum tonight by cody Bradford. Only tallying 4 hits the whole game and 3 of them came off the bat of Zach Neto. Speaking of Zach Neto, he came into the game hitting .396 against lefties which is the highest in the AL. He racked up 2 more hits off of a lefty tonight which puts him ver .400. I would also like to add that Cody Bradford only gave up 2 hits tonight and yes you guessed it, Neto did have both of those. It’s a shame the rest of the Halos offense really didn’t have much to offer for tonights game, it was just that first inning that screwed everything over.

If anyone was wondering how the Angels scored their only run it was on a Nolan Schanuel jam shot to short, it was a pretty weird situation.

Here it is.

There was not much action after this.

Final score Rangers 3 Angels 1

We need 5 more wins to guarantee that we don’t lose 100 and we have 6 games left with the ChiSox. Highly unlikely that we lose 100. My guess is that we end up something like 66-96.

Well we were due for a loss cause that’s the rules this season. Multiple wins in a row is a treat they pass out sparingly.

My personal goal is now to climb the massive mountain of 2.5 games to getting ahead of the A’s to not finish last. Really doesn’t matter but at least the hacks writing articles all winter won’t be able to throw in “last place” Angels in their half ass articles about the team. We are a last place caliber team for sure but I just hope to not see that all winter.

Pretty sad that’s my bar for the season but that’s where I’m at.

We must be the last team that finally plays the white sox. Six big games could get us past Sacramento

Oh well. Hoping for a W tomorrow when we’re there. Saw Ohtani’s start there last season and a Halos W, so that was fun.

Good stat pull on Neto.

Ward’s awareness and hustle led to that run. I like the blue collar way he plays the game.

TrAdition dictates that the Angels will not score much after posting more than 5 runs the night before. Frankly I’m surprised they scored at all.

Texas is not a good team, and we played down to them.

Silent C pitched well enough to win, but the anemic offense did him in.

Texas has…The Boch. 4-time WS champ and we got Wee Willie Washington. Put a check mark ✅ in the Ranger column.

So much for a .500 season. 22 games left. So at least there’s that.

Ah, f-me. A loss, was not expecting that. I like the Zefernator guy. He’s got moxie.
