The Los Angeles Angels are a poor road team and is away from home for the sixth straight game. They look like a road weary team, losing the first two games in Texas by a combined 15-2 here, and dropping seven of their last nine. The Angels go with struggling J.C. Ramirez, who has allowed 28 runs his last seven starts (35+ innings, 46 hits). The Angels are 17-35 against losing teams, including 7-20 run on the road. They are still without star Mike Trout and is down to #24 in baseball in runs scored. Texas is eighth in runs scored and plays its sixth straight home contest. Rangers ace Yu Darvish has a 3.56 ERA and 119 strikeouts in 111 innings. He has dominated the Angels this season, 2-0 with a 1.38 ERA. Texas is 18-6 at home against losing teams, as well as 35-16 at home versus a team with a losing road record. And the Angels are 3-7 in their last 10 meetings in this park. Play Texas.
