Game Preview
On Tuesday night, Arizona and Texas meet at Arlington, Texas’ Globe Life Field. Since Texas swept the Diamondbacks in two games at home in September 2021, these teams have not faced off. Both teams had Monday off before beginning their two-game series.
Prior to splitting a recent series with Colorado, Arizona won two of three games at home against Kansas City. Despite having won four of their previous six contests, they ended April with a discouraging 12-4 loss to the Rockies, bringing their record to 16-13.
Ryne Nelson got pounded by six runs and nine hits in four innings of that contest. When Peter Solomon entered the game, he pitched 2.1 innings and gave up six runs, so the bullpen wasn’t much of a help. The Diamondbacks were led by Evan Longoria, who hit his third solo home run.

The Texas Rangers, meanwhile, were successful in exploiting the New York Yankees, winning three of four games at home, including a 15-2 victory on Sunday. With Giancarlo Stanton and Aaron Judge now on the injured list, the 15-15 Yankees are in serious trouble.
Only eight runs in four games were scored by the undermanned Bronx Bombers thanks to Texas pitching. The Rangers hit four home runs in their victory on Sunday, including the seventh by Adolis Garica and the fifth by Josh Jung. Martin Perez, the starter, went six innings while giving up six hits and one run.
The Rangers will use right-handed veteran Jon Gray, who has been pitching well recently. In five starts, he has a 3.91 ERA and a 1.34 WHIP. In each of his five starts this year, he has given up three runs or less. Gray has faced Arizona in 18 starts and is 5-7 with a 5.60 ERA.
How effective was Zac Gallen? After starting the season by giving up nine earned runs in his first two starts, Arizona has now blanked the last four opponents. While it seems like Jon Gray has finally settled down in Texas, Arizona has long owned him. In order to stand a chance against Gallen, Gray will need to transform into deGrom.
