RORLIVE! - #TexasRangers vs. #ChicagoCubs | Leiter Escaped Traffic, Bats Hit Back | Game 39

Tonight on #RightonRangers live: • Texas is up 5-0 on the Cubs in Game 39, and after Friday night’s 7-1 no-show, this already feels like a much-needed response. • Jack Leiter gave Texas 4.2 scoreless with 6 strikeouts, but the five walks matter too. He escaped traffic. He did not exactly cruise through it. • Josh Jung set the tone with the early homer, and that matters after a week where the Rangers badly needed a cleaner offensive headline. • The bottom half did actual work: Joc Pederson reached twice, Alejandro Osuna drove in two, and Justin Foscue added the solo shot (the first of his MLB career). That is how a lineup stops waiting on one star to save it. • Now the only job is to finish it clean. The Cubs came in scorching, and Texas does not need another late-game stress test with a five-run lead. Chat question: Bigger story tonight: Leiter escaping traffic, or the Rangers offense finally giving the pitching staff a real cushion? #TexasRangers #MLB #Cubs #ChicagoCubs #MLBBaseball #Baseball #TexasRangersBaseball #MLBHighlights #JackLeiter #JoshJung #JustinFoscue
