After a few annoying losses here and there over the last couple of weeks, the Rangers came out tonight and did pretty much everything right as they finished off a series win over Pittsburgh in the first leg of the current homestand. The Rangers had Jacob deGrom on the mound at The Shed and that usually works out pretty well. Indeed, tonight was vintage deGrom as he allowed a single run on five hits and a walk with ten strikeouts in 5.
2 innings of easy breezy dominance. Meanwhile Evan Carter continued to make enemies of Pittsburgh with a two-run inside the park home run that gave the Rangers a 2-0 lead. EVAN CARTER INSIDE-THE-PARK HOME RUN‼️ pic.
