Texas Rangers
The Rangers were finally able to snap a 6 game losing streak with a victory at Kaufmann Stadium on Wednesday night. Now Texas will aim to make it two in a row on getaway day as the tea heads back home Friday for the 1st time in 10 days.
Texas could be looking towards getting back to their home state consider their isn’t much to play for as the team is already 9 GB in the West. The #1 scoring offense in baseball is always a risk however.

Veteran Lance Lynn is on the hill for Texas to wind out this series. Mike Minor was able to stymie the Royals bats for just 1ER on Wednesday although Lynn has allowed 5+ in 2 of his last 4 games.
Kansas City Royals
KC’s defeat on Wednesday dropped their home record to 10-13, but that’s nowhere near as bad as Texas’ 5-15 record on the road. The defeat destroyed all the momentum the Royals had built up after an 11-5 series opening win on Tuesday.
The 11 runs Kansas City scored on Tuesday seems like an anomaly considering they’ve been held to 1 run or less in 4 of the last 6. Even so, Thursday’s O/U is a whopping 10, meaning KC has a chance of getting to Lynn.

Another reason the total seems a bit on the high side is because Homer Bailey has pitched much better recently for the Royals. The veteran has allowed just 3ER in his last two starts after giving up 8 total in the two starts prior.
MLB Baseball Betting Trends:
- Rangers are 17-40 last 57 road games

Free Texas Rangers vs. Kansas City Royals MLB Prediction:
That’s a truckload of runs that oddsmakers are calling for in this one. Sure Texas has the best run scoring offense in baseball, but Bailey has been hard to get to recently. Couple that with the offensive struggles that the Royals are going through and low scoring seems to be the play.
