With a lack luster offense, you have to create runs. We don't do that and we're losing games because of it. Woody thinks everyone at the plate will get a hit. He needs to sacrifice when the coditions are right. Too many runners left on base.

5 runs, all from HR. 0-6 w/RISP. Need more small ball and manufactured runs.

No doubt.Not sure why Woody won't play that way unless he truly thinks every hitter will get a hit and that is dumb.

I did not want Semien to bunt but he sure should have been up there trying to hit behind the runner. Guess his success earlier pulling the ball interfered with logic

Learning experience for the rookies but they did not look prepared

As for me thinking the 2 runs was enough cushion for Bush that one is on me

Definitely need to find a way to raise the batting average with runners in scoring position.
Rangers are in the bottom 1/4 th of the league.
Number 23 out of 30 teams. .231

Choke up on the bat and just make some decent contact if there’s a guy on 2B
