Despite injuries and inconsistency plaguing their campaign, the Rangers have been a great home team this season.
Texas started Cody Bradford ($8,500; 25.35 FPTS), who delivered a dazzling effort on the bump. The second-year pitcher fanned eight across seven innings while only allowing a pair of earned runs.
Leody Tavares ($3,200; 5 FPTS) was the difference at the plate, as he hit a dribbler up the middle to walk it off in the bottom of the ninth. Jonah Heim ($3,700; 16 FPTS) drove in the other two runs with a homer to right in the second.
Oakland’s Lawrence Butler ($4,000; 21 FPTS) continued his scorching stretch by launching his sixth homer of the week. Brent Rooker ($5,700; 15 FPTS) contributed with a multi-hit evening.
The reigning champions look to win the series tomorrow afternoon.
