The Texas Rangers unleashed a historic offensive performance Wednesday night, scoring 20 runs , a record for Globe Life Field, on 20 hits , the most the Rangers have ever recorded at their home ballpark, to crush the Los Angeles Angels 20-3. The outburst was the most runs scored by the Rangers in a game since July 25, 2011, and is tied for the third-most in franchise history.
The game was originally supposed to feature Nathan Eovaldi, who had been having a career-best season. However, a rotator cuff strain ended Eovaldi’s regular season prematurely . In his place, the Rangers started Jacob Latz in a bullpen game. Latz delivered 4.1 innings, allowing two runs on four hits. Jacob Webb followed with 1 2/3 scoreless innings, earning the win (5-4).
