Rangers over Astros- This ‘Battle for Texas’ could provide some fireworks as these two Lone Star clubs vie for not only say bragging rights but the chance to enhance their lead if you are Texas as Division leader or to narrow the gap if you are Houston (3-games behind). The upstart Rangers were about to swept three straight by the Dodgers Sunday and it wasn’t pretty trailing 4-0 in the first they used their bats to post the victory. Monday, they will start Jon Gray (6-5, 3.31 ERA) and the 31-year old has ever been better with a WHIP of 1.13 ad only surrendering 89 hits in 103 innings he gets the edge of the Astros starter Brandon Bielak (3-3, 6.75) who has been meat allowing 39 hits in 32 innings with a WHIP of 1.75. Fly-boys are 15-5 at home in the last 20 meetings and the action is heavy on the Rangers as it should be. Take HOUSTON!
