Baltimore at Texas

The Texas Rangers have managed to stay in the thick of things, despite time being missed by four of their five starters. The main cog has been Derek Holland as he has provided an 8-4 record on the season backed by a stellar 3.08 ERA. He also owns a 4-1 career mark vs. Baltimore. Davis has carried a big bat for Baltimore, but the Rangers neutralized him in their last series, limiting him to 1-13. Baltimore has met some resistance on the road of late where they are just 2-7, and they are also just 1-5 in their last six vs. a winning team overall. Holland has been nearly unstoppable when opening a series where the Rangers own an impressive 22-4 mark when he takes the mound in Game 1. The Orioles are just 5-12 in the last 17 meetings, so this one belongs to Texas.
