Rangers score most runs without a homer since 1976 in win over Royals

Texas Rangers Adolis García hits an RBI single during the fourth inning of a baseball game against the Kansas City Royals in Kansas City, Mo., Saturday, May 4, 2024.Case in point: Saturday’s 15-4 win over Kansas City. It was the most runs the Rangers have scored this year. They did it without a homer. It’s the most runs the Rangers have scored without a homer since 1976.

They still lack an extra-base hit. Baby steps. Lowe had one of the Rangers’ most frustrating at-bats with the bases loaded earlier in the week against Washington in a game when the Rangers twice had the bases loaded with no outs and, on both occasions, left them loaded., he chased a 1-0 sinker out of the zone with nobody out and the bases jammed for a tapper in front of the plate. Williams scooped it up, flipped home for the force out and the inning fizzled from there.

“I’m just telling myself there, he can’t beat me,” Lowe said. “You simply can’t give in. As a whole, I think we’ve been trying to slug our way out of it. I know I have. The offense is starting to recognize its identity. We’re not entirely the same as last year. We’re going to have to manufacture some runs and score runs in different ways. When you just focus on hitting the ball hard, good things can happen.

, Rangers beat writer/insider. Evan has covered the Rangers since 1997. He has twice been named one of the top 10 beat writers in the country by the AP Sports Editors. His passions outside of covering baseball are his wife, Gina, his two step kids, two crazy dogs & barbecue. Let's not discuss the cat. Evan graduated from Georgia State University, but oddly is a Georgia fan.
