Game 1 did not go the way Texas wanted it to go. Fourth in the American League West division, the Rangers are out of the playoffs race. Their home (33-42) record for the season has been poor. Losing to Cleveland was not the way they wanted this series to begin, with their pitchers underperforming.
John Gray had a terrible outing on the mound for the Rangers. Of the five IPs, the main man could only get a single strikeout. He was not expensive but not effective either. Worst of the lot was Taylor Hearn, who conceded five earned runs from six hits in just 0.1 IPs, which was a huge factor in his team's defeat.
The Guardians, meanwhile, are riding high, going 8-2 in their last ten outings. They are atop the AL Central standings and are closing in on a playoffs berth.
In Game 1, almost every batter put their name on the scoresheet in what was a complete team effort. Their pitchers were effective and efficient too, leading the team to a 6-3 victory.
