- The Rangers have won a game! Huzzah!
- Not only did the Rangers win a game, they won it against one of the two teams in the American League with a record better than .500.
- That’s right, its mediocrity as far as the eye can see in the A.L. right now.
- Outstanding work by Nathan Eovaldi. Really top notch.
- Eight innings, eight Ks, which is some nice symmetry. 101 pitches, of which almost two-thirds were either splitters or curveballs.
- And even when Eovaldi did go fastball, he primarily used his cutter, which he threw 23 times. He only went with the fastball nine times, and threw four sinkers.
- 19 whiffs for Eovaldi, eight of them coming on the curveball. He threw it a lot more often than usual on Wednesday, and you can see why.
- The only damper was a home run by Aaron Judge, but I’m pretty sure Aaron Judge homers every game so we can let that go.
- Plus the Rangers actually scored some runs.
