Game Preview
As the Rangers prepare to head to Baltimore to begin a best-of-5 series following their whitewash of the Rays, attention turns to the ACLS. Both teams are making their appearance in the playoffs after a long time and are hoping to advance, embarking on with the division series. The game will take place on October 7th at Oriole Park at Camden Yards in Baltimore.
The Texas Rangers disposed of the Tampa Bay Rays during the Wild Card round with ease, outperforming them 11-1 to secure a 2-game sweep, while the Baltimore Orioles took advantage of a well-earned bye to advance into the American League Division Series for their first appearance since 2014.
The Rangers have been an up and down group that earned the number 5 seed in the postseason, but they also represent a squad that can put numerous hits and runs. If the Rangers had defeated Seattle during their last regular-season match, they would have earned the AL West championship and the number 2 seed. Instead, they dropped that contest and finished in 5th place. The Rangers could have been completely destroyed by that, but coach Bruce Bochy definitely has a tough squad on his plate since the Rangers won 4-0 and 7-1 in sparsely crowded Tropicana Field. Any bitterness the Rangers may have felt after losing their divisional championship has certainly vanished since they are now playing baseball in an open and carefree manner.
After securing the number 1 seed in the American League with an outstanding campaign, which is among the best in team history, winning 101 games. Only the Atlanta Braves won more games in the MLB. Baltimore received plenty of time to recuperate and get ready for this series. Clubs aren’t used to having a full 5 days break through the MLB grind. The Orioles won’t have played since Sunday, so as their lineup is intact plus their relievers were given a lot of break, it will be intriguing to follow how it impacts them. The Orioles have a young roster, plus their pitching has outperformed all predictions made when the team’s offense was thought to be its strong suit.
