Rangers set to tee off on Jackson of the Devil Rays
Texas looks to follow up last game's win over the Devil Rays with another Saturday at home against Tampa Bay and pitcher Edwin Jackson.
Sporting an 8-9 overall record and a 5-4 mark within the division, the Rangers aim to knock the Devil Rays (5-8 in the division) for a loss.
The Rangers opened as -145 home favorites in this game, while the total opened at 11.5 runs.
Joe Maddon's troops went to Texas last game and came away with a 13-7 loss, a game that went over 11. Oddsmakers had them as underdogs in that one.
The Rangers need to cut down on the strikeouts and get some runners on base - they are whiffing 7.5 times per game. The hitters need to make some contact.
TB: M. Hendrickson (1-0, 0.00)
TEX: R. Bauer (1-0, 4.66)
