Can the Texas Rangers win their fourth consecutive series this week in a matchup with the Kansas City Royals?
It’s the opening contest of a three-game series between the Texas Rangers and Kansas City Royals today at Globe Life Field. Two teams with playoff ambitions despite slow starts to the season, this is an important series for both squads. The Rangers continue to climb the American League West standings, now sitting at third in the division with a record of 36-36. Getting back to .500 feels like a significant milestone as the team looks to build momentum into the back half of the season. They’ve been dominant at home, which is something to consider today, with a 23-13 record in front of their own fans. At 34-38, the Royals haven’t been as good as expected this season and are fourth in the American League Central. They’ve lost eight of their last 10 games and are 15-19 on the road this season.

Texas has won three series in a row, improving at the right time. Conversely, Kansas City has really struggled of late and needs a quality series to get back on track. With that in mind, both of these teams have a ton of talent and it should be a competitive contest today and series overall.
Following this contest, these teams will play two more times before going their separate ways. At that point, the Rangers will travel to Pittsburgh to take on the Pirates in their next series, while the Royals will take on the San Diego Padres in California after this.
