Can the Rangers get the sweep ? The matchups say no but the Rangers have overcome the matchups twice already.
Boston got an unearned run in the top of the first. Meanwhile, the Texas bats return to mush as the Rangers cannot produce a single base runner in the first three innings.
After one: Boston 1 Texas 0.
That changes in the fourth as the Rangers put together several hits in a row and tie the game on an RBI single by Jeff Burroughs.
An error and a bases loaded walk allows Boston to retake the lead in the top of the sixth.
After six: Boston 2 Texas 1.
The final three innings went by quietly as the Rangers could not get the tying run even to second base.
Final score: Boston 2 Texas 1.
