Texas lost 3-2 in Seattle and turned a winnable September game into Kade Anderson’s first Major League win. The Rangers went 0-for-5 with runners in scoring position, stranded seven, and managed only solo homers from Jake Burger and Corey Seager even after the bullpen gave them four scoreless innings.

Austin gets into the ninth-inning decision to pinch-run Cam Cauley without ever really turning his speed loose, Evan Carter’s current role, Cody Bradford’s fit, and why the lineup still feels too dependent on isolated damage. The show also covers Nathan Eovaldi and Josh Jung updates before looking ahead to Jacob deGrom vs. Logan Gilbert in Thursday’s rubber match.
