The Texas Rangers came into the 2023 season with a chip on their shoulder after losing 94 games in 2022.
Fortified by a revamped pitching staff and a powerful lineup, the Rangers have been nothing short of dominant this season.
With Tuesday’s 6-4 win over the slumping St. Louis Cardinals, the Rangers reached the 40-win mark and moved to 20 games above the .500 mark.
One of their key contributors, former Cardinal Adolis Garcia, hit a home run in the fifth inning.
After the game, Garcia discussed what has been working this season for the Rangers and what they can continue to do in order to keep rolling.
“Right now, we’re playing as a unite, as a family.”
Every night it’s something new for the Rangers! Five straight and another series secured.
