What a day to be a Rangers fan! The Texas Rangers gave the Tampa Bay Rays a solid thumping in a game where everything went right for us. From the moment the first pitch was thrown, you could feel the energy in the air at Globe Life Field.First Inning: Quick Start 
After Marcus Semien grounded out to third, Corey Seager doubled to right, showing the Rays they were in for a tough game. Although we left a couple of runners stranded, Wyatt Langford ensured we didn’t leave the inning empty-handed with his RBI double that brought Seager home. 
Third Inning: Minor Setback 
The Rays briefly took the lead in the third inning, thanks to a homer from Jose Caballero. This put the Rays up 2-1, but little did they know, our boys were just getting warmed up.Fourth Inning: Offensive Explosion 
This inning was where everything changed. Langford got us started with a single, and Nathaniel Lowe followed with another single. Jonah Heim then singled to drive in one, tying the game. Travis Jankowski brought in two more runs with a clutch single to center. The moment of the inning? Seager smashing a 382-foot homer, bringing three runners home! By the end of the inning, we had surged ahead 7-2.Fifth Inning: Keeping the Heat On
