Key Storylines
Pitching Matchup
Jose Soriano returns to the mound for the Angels after a brief absence due to personal reasons. He has been solid this season and has set career highs in wins, innings pitched, and strikeouts. Soriano previously faced the Rangers on July 30 and allowed just one earned run while striking out seven in a strong outing.
Jacob deGrom takes the ball for the Rangers. He has been dominant at home with a 6-3 record and a 2.11 ERA in 12 starts at Globe Life Field. DeGrom’s consistency and ability to perform in Arlington make him a tough matchup for the Angels tonight.
Recent Team Streaks
The Rangers have won three games in a row going into this series. They swept the Cleveland Guardians and recorded two shutouts in their last series. The Angels were swept over the weekend by the Chicago Cubs and they will look to get back into the win column with a victory tonight.

Final Thoughts
Jacob deGrom has been excellent at home this season and has been very good overall in 2025. He should continue to pitch well here against an Angels team that is struggling going into this game. I’ll lay the runline with Texas here, as they should get their fourth win in a row and help their AL Wild Card chances in the process.
