There isn't much doubt the Rangers are going to score some runs, it is just a matter of their pitching providing a reasonable opportunity for those runs to hold up. Mark Hendrickson, despite a good outing vs Tampa Bay in the opener, is not someone that is equipped to keep this Ranger lineup down. Hendrickson is the owner of a 5+ career ERA and that should spell doom vs the bats of the Rangers. Kris Benson made his first appearance since 2006 for the Rangers. He certainly needed the game to get the feeling back and I look for him to rebound with a much better outing here. Better lineup and better mound potential plus the Rangers home here, and I'll go with Texas in this one.
