ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — The reigning World Series champion Texas Rangers are undefeated this season when they have a .500 record.
That means they still haven’t had a losing record with Bruce Bochy as their manager. On the other hand, the Rangers haven’t gotten any real momentum going nearly one-third of the way into his second season with them.
Texas went into an off day Monday at 24-24, exactly .500 for the ninth time already this season. Every time in that situation so far, the Rangers have won their next game.
“I didn’t even think about that, and I don’t know if they know what our record is,” Bochy said about his players. “But it says a lot when you go through some tough times and you find a way to win the games that you need to win.”
When asked if he knew the team’s record, Bochy said not exactly, other than they were over .500.
