Astros Lose Again, 6-5, to Rangers
The Texas Rangers reigned over the Houston Astros in damp conditions.

The Texas Rangers did just enough to sneak past the Houston Astros, 6-5, at Globe Life Park in Arlington. Texas pitcher Ragnar Danielsson, in particular, had a standout performance. Danielsson picked up the win for Texas, going 7 innings. He gave up 2 runs on 4 hits. He now sports a record of 2-2.

Vince Ealy was 2 for 3 with a double for Texas. The slick-fielding shortstop had a key at-bat in the bottom of the third. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 2-2 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Moises Hernandez Jr.. It was his 11th RBI of the season.

"We've hit a rough patch right now," said Houston skipper Dave DaSilva.

The Astros fall to 13-17 and continue their lackluster start in 2049.
