The Texas Rangers have the best record in the AL for one reason - they have managed to avoid losing streaks. The most they have lost in a row all year is five games, and have had another losing streak of four in a row. They have otherwise not lost more than three in a row, and have been the best team in picking up the pieces from a loss. The Rangers are now a major-league best 56-18 when following a loss. The Angels are three games out of the second wildcard spot in the AL with just 14 games to play. But they simply haven't been the team most thought they would be. Texas took their former teammate C.J. Wilson to school in his last outing against them, touching him up for eight earned runs. Holland usually brings his best stuff to the mound vs. a winning team where the Rangers are now 25-10 in his last 35 facing one. Play on Texas.
