Los Angeles Angels vs. Texas Rangers preview
The Texas Rangers bring their elite pitching staff—currently sporting MLB's best ERA at 3.17—to Anaheim where they'll face an Angels team that's been surprisingly powerful at the plate with 150 home runs on the season.
Tuesday's matchup pits veteran Patrick Corbin against Yusei Kikuchi in what shapes up as a classic contrast between the Rangers' run-suppressing bullpen and the Angels' home run-happy lineup.
Despite sitting five games below .500, Los Angeles has shown they can slug with anyone, while Texas continues to rely on exceptional pitching to overcome their own offensive struggles (.230 team average).
The Rangers' defense could prove decisive, as their MLB-leading .991 fielding percentage has helped them turn batted balls into outs at an exceptional rate.
Angel Stadium should provide an interesting backdrop for this AL West contest, where the home team's tendency to strike out (MLB-leading 1,015 Ks) will be tested against a Rangers staff that's already racked up 848 strikeouts this season.
