Rangers 10, Tigers 4: Texas got eight hits from the bottom three hitters in the order. Evo gets the win.

Rangers finish their 15-day stretch with no break at 10-5. They're a half-game ahead of Seattle in the AL West.

Diaz doubles. At some point you say, "Save some for the rest of the series." Rangers have 16 hits tonight.

[Matthew Postins @PostinsPostcard]

Evan Carter has homered. Second hit tonight. Fourth hit in three games. Maybe we're onto something here? 10-4 Rangers.

[Matthew Postins @PostinsPostcard]

Winn got out of that only allowing one run. Onto the bottom of the eighth.

[Matthew Postins @PostinsPostcard]

Gavin Collyer is up in the Rangers bullpen. Winn has allowed a run here in the eighth.

[Matthew Postins @PostinsPostcard]

Here's Cole Winn on in the eighth for the Rangers.

If you haven't been go. I did it in 2000. Jack's last U.S. Open. Tiger dominated the field. The views are incredible. It's a bucket list course.

Love that Round Rock did this and acknowledged the absurdity of it. The way this one is going we might see Mr. Peoples make his debut. 9-3 Rangers in seventh.

[Round Rock Express @RRExpress]

Still wanted to share the big news... Welcome to The Show, Ben Peoples!

After 24 hours in Round Rock, Peoples will be active tonight as the Rangers take on the Detroit Tigers at 7:05 p.m. at Globe Life Field.

Nothing like beating out OU for a top prospect!

Josh Smith ground ball off the pitcher's glove and that scores a run. Here comes A.J. Hinch again. Rangers are a runaway train. 9-3 Texas. Oh we're still in the seventh. Kenley Jansen coming on for Detroit.

[Matthew Postins @PostinsPostcard]

Nicky Lopez does his best Alejandro Osuna impression and singles home a run on a ground ball. 8-3. It's the "seeing-eye" stuff the Rangers weren't getting a month ago in this offense.

[Matthew Postins @PostinsPostcard]

Alejandro Osuna guides an RBI single into left field to score Carter. I'm not sure the Rangers have a better hitter right now at finding defensive seams. Rangers lead 7-3.

[Matthew Postins @PostinsPostcard]

And Evan Carter has another hit off a lefty. It was a slow rolling knuckleball of a hit to the shortstop, who had no play. But it was a hit.

[Matthew Postins @PostinsPostcard]

Rangers brought in Evan Carter to pinch-hit against Brieske. A.J. Hinch said screw that and Drew Sommers, a lefty, is now in the game. Carter is going to face a lefty after getting two hits off lefties on Monday. Skip likely knew that was coming.

[Matthew Postins @PostinsPostcard]

Robby Ahlstrom gets out of the jam. He has to face at least one more hitters. Tigers' next three hitters are lefties. He could face all three.

Also, his middle name is Coolidge.

[Matthew Postins @PostinsPostcard]

Robby Ahlstrom now in for the Rangers. That's three relievers tonight. This could be a multi-inning Jacob Latz night as Texas holds 6-3 lead.

[Matthew Postins @PostinsPostcard]

Josh Smith with a solo pinch hit home run off Beau Brieske in the sixth. After the last two months that must have felt good. 6-3 Rangers.

[Matthew Postins @PostinsPostcard]

Gray struck out Lee. Rangers remain in front in the sixth.

[Matthew Postins @PostinsPostcard]

Ok, so it did matter. Gray coming in to replace Alexander. The effect? The Tigers pinch hit twice for lefties with righties. Gray has good splits against both sides of plate. If he doesn't get Lee here it's back to top of order.

[Matthew Postins @PostinsPostcard]

I'm not entirely sure how this information helps but Peyton Gray is now playing catch with Tyler Alexander in the Rangers bullpen. But you get Evo in the sixth and, for some reason, we're singing Country Roads now. #HailWV

[Matthew Postins @PostinsPostcard]

Skip has seen enough. Here comes Tyler Alexander. Eovaldi is in line for the win after he struck out nine and gave up three runs in 5.1 innings. Evo only faced one hitter and got him out. Three of Tigers next four hitters were lefties, so Skip must like that matchup.
