Tonight on #RightonRangers live: • Jacob deGrom gave Texas a real ace start: 6 scoreless, 2 hits, 0 walks, 8 strikeouts, and career K No. 1,900. That is the headline. • Texas is up 1-0, but this is not comfortable baseball. One run means the bullpen and defense do not get a lazy inning. • The only run came from pressure, not fireworks: Josh Jung scored, Joc Pederson moved to third, and Alejandro Osuna put the ball in play to force the issue. • Jameson Taillon kept this thing tight too, which is why the Rangers cannot treat one run like enough until the handshake line is real. • The series is sitting right there. The Cubs took Friday, Texas answered with Saturday’s shutout, and now deGrom handed them a chance to take the rubber game. Chat question: What matters more tonight: deGrom looking like deGrom, or the Rangers proving they can protect a one-run lead? #TexasRangers #MLB #Cubs #ChicagoCubs #MLBBaseball #Baseball #TexasRangersBaseball #MLBHighlights #JacobdeGrom
