Seattle at Texas

No one thought the Texas Rangers would be around a playoff race in mid-September, but here they are putting pressure on the Red Sox, just two games behind them in the AL wildcard race. The Rangers aren't gonna make it easy as they have won three straight and seven of nine. Kevin Millwood gets the ball here for the Rangers, and he has allowed two runs or less in 16 of his 28 starts on the season. He has been real sharp at home with a 7-2 mark backed by a 2.83 ERA. The Rangers are also 55-23 with a total set at 9-10.5, and with Millwood opening a series stand at 9-2. Mariners are 22-57 in their last 79 with a total set at 9-10.5, and just 19-43 in their last 62 as a road dog. I'll go with the Rangers in this one.
