Another game, another frustratingly familiar story for the Texas Rangers. The offense went completely quiet in a 6-0 shutout loss to the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday night, once again wasting a chance to gain ground in the AL West. The bats managed just three singles all evening, looking completely overmatched and dropping the team to 38-41 on the season.
The Rangers rank 25th in MLB in runs scored (265) and hold a team batting average of .229, better than only four teams in the league.
The box score tells a grim tale. Orioles starter Trevor Rogers was masterful, carving up the Rangers' lineup for a career-high eight innings. He scattered three harmless singles, struck out four, and didn't issue a single walk. The Rangers' offense was so anemic they never even managed to get a runner to second base. On the other side, Rangers starter Patrick Corbin couldn't keep the O's at bay, surrendering five runs on nine hits in his five innings of work. Baltimore's Jackson Holliday did most of the damage, going 3-for-5 and breaking the game open with a three-run homer.
This isn't just one bad night; it's a troubling pattern that has defined the 2025 season. While the pitching has had its moments, the offense has consistently failed to provide support. The team's .229 batting average and ranking near the bottom of the league in runs scored are glaring indicators of a deep-rooted slump. For a team with postseason aspirations, this level of offensive production is simply not sustainable. The power has vanished, rallies are non-existent, and the pressure on the pitching staff is immense.
As fans look for answers, the front office remained quiet on Tuesday. There were no major roster moves, injury updates, or trades announced that might shake up the struggling lineup. The coaching staff and farm system also had no significant news. This lack of activity means the solution, at least for now, must come from within. The same group of players that took the field in Baltimore will be counted on to turn things around.
With no immediate help on the horizon via trades or call-ups, the burden falls squarely on the shoulders of the current lineup. The Rangers have to find a way to manufacture runs, and fast. As the season's midpoint looms, these games feel increasingly critical. The series in Baltimore continues, and fans will be desperately watching to see if this offense can finally wake from its slumber.
