Just this past month, the Rangers broke out their red hats for the first time this year vs. the Mariners. The red hats were the club’s only hats for its first three playoff seasons and a regular part of the rotation in the 2010-11 World Series runs.

The Rangers didn’t string together any big rallies until the eighth inning but continually put runs on the scoreboard in the first, second, fourth and fifth innings. The wheels fell off in the eighth by way of an erratic Rafael Montero.

The Texas Rangers have won six of seven games since the All-Star break and will look to continue that roll when they clash with the sputtering Atlanta Braves on Saturday in the middle game of a three-game interleague series in Arlington,

The Rangers have the second-worst record against left-handed pitching and are dead last in OBP, slugging and OPS against lefties.

The 44-57 Atlanta Braves will spend the weekend in Arlington for a three-game set with the Texas Rangers. The series gets underway tonight at 8:05 ET. Though no starters have been confirmed, Joey Wentz, Grant Holmes, and Bryce Elder are probable.
