1* free play on the Texas Rangers...
The Rangers have split the first two games of this series versus Chicago, but they have won four of six on this current home stand. Texas appears to have a favorable match-up in tonight's rubber match, and the price looks more than fair to back the home team.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Pitching - The White Sox will hand the ball to 22 year old left-hander Carlos Rodon, who makes his fifth career start. Rodon (1-0, 3.45 ERA) was tagged for three runs on eight hits over 6.1 innings in a no decision at Houston in his last start. He's struggled with his command, giving out 15 walks over 22 innings in his last four outings. Texas will counter with Yovani Gallardo, who is coming off back-to-back wins. He's given up just three runs while striking out 11 over 12 innings in his last two starts.

2. The Chicago Bats - Only the Phillies have scored fewer runs in the major leagues, as the White Sox have scored an American League worst 190 runs.

3. X-Factor - Prince Fielder sat out last night, but he and his American League best .355 average are expected back in the lineup tonight.
