Rays Fall to Rangers Late
A nice crowd turned out for a clash between the Texas Rangers and Tampa Bay Rays.

Behind the hitting of Justin Foscue, the Texas Rangers stopped the Tampa Bay Rays, 8-3. Foscue was 2 for 4 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2 for the Rangers. With their winning streak at 4, the Rangers have raced to a strong start this season.

Wyatt Langford was 1 for 3 with 2 walks for Texas. The 2024 Rookie of the Year Award winner had a key at-bat in the top of the ninth. With no one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 3-3 tie with a run-scoring walk off Pete Fairbanks. It was his 2nd walk of the season.

"Feels good to get the job done," Foscue said after the game.
