Rangers and Astros are Idle
Jose Ramírez homered on his 31st birthday to touch off Cleveland’s nine-run fourth inning, leading the Guardians to a 9-2 win and three-game sweep of the playoff-chasing Texas Rangers on Sunday. In the thick of the AL West and wild-card races, the Rangers came to Cleveland riding a six-game winning streak, only to be held to six runs over the weekend.
The Astros salvaged the final game of their series, expanding their American League West lead to 1 1/2 games.
Seattle fell 2 1/2 games behind first-place Houston in the AL West and is a game behind Texas for the final American League wild card.
