The last match of the MLB series between Texas Rangers and Oakland Athletics will be played next Sunday, September 01st at 12:35 pm Central Time, game in which is evident that Texas Rangers are the big favorites to win. Nevertheless, it couldn’t be easily forgotten than they were completely obliterated during the first game of the series after their 2-9 loss.

With that in mind, it’s evident that Texas Rangers are completely forced to win their remaining games of this series against the Athletics, as they now are 10 games behind Houston Astros. When looking at Texas’ offensive line, it can be found that Marcus Semien has scored 81 careers throughout the season, but he hasn’t been regular during the last 7 games, as he only scored 2 runs.

Meanwhile, Oakland Athletics is in the fourth spot of the AL Central Division, being 4 games behind Texas Rangers and 14 behind Houston Astros. In this regard, this team is most likely going to have a sad farewell from Oakland, as it looks almost impossible from them to qualify to the playoffs. However, for this match they have Mitch Spence as the probable pitcher, who has been truly consistent after achieving 100 strikeouts in 121 played innings.
