This is a Free #MLB play on the Texas #Rangers


The Texas Rangers will host the New York Yankees in Game 1 of a three game series on Monday, and both these teams are swinging hot bats. The Yankees are coming off back to back wins in Minnesota, scoring a total of 15 runs in those games. The Rangers have won four of their last five, and they've scored seven or more runs in five of their last six.

Matt Harrison will toe the rubber for the Rangers, and he's coming off a real gem at Colorado. Harrison (1-1, 5.40 ERA) tossed six scoreless innings in 9-0 win over the Rockies. He was torched for six runs on six hits and three walks over just four innings in a home loss to Arizona prior to that.

The Yankees hand the ball to Ivan Nova, who has lost both his starts on the road so far. Nova (2-3, 3.34 ERA) allowed four runs on eight hits over 6 2/3 innings in a loss to Boston in his last start on the road. He's allowed seven runs on 14 hits over 12.2 innings in hist two trips to Texas.

Texas leads the majors in runs scored since the All Star break.

Take TEX.
