The Rangers won a closely contested match in the first game of the series 2-1. The Rockies took a one-run lead in the second inning, but gave up two runs in the sixth, which cost them the game. While the Rockies lost the game, they covered the massive +3.5 runline.

For the 22nd time this season, the Colorado Rockies (7-35) scored two runs or less. That is the highest number of games this season and highlighted a night where the pitching was immaculate and the offense was absent in a 4-1 loss to the Texas Rangers (22-21).

In their second game under interim manager Warren Schaeffer, the Rockies’ offense was once again a no-show in a 4-1 loss to the Rangers on Tuesday night at Globe Field. Schaeffer was named interim manager on Sunday when Bud Black was fired.

Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said X-rays were negative, but that the right hand “swelled up pretty good.” He said a stint on the injured list was certainly a possibility.

The Texas Rangers removed a second reliever from a save situation in as many games on Tuesday against the Colorado Rockies.
