The Texas Rangers, chasing a wild card spot, face the surging Miami Marlins in Arlington, aiming to break a five-game losing streak.

The Texas Rangers, five games behind leaders Houston and Boston with eight games left, face the resurgent Miami Marlins in Arlington, seeking to end a five-game losing streak. After a 6-4 12-inning loss Friday, the Rangers out-hit Miami 14-4 but left 13 runners on base. The Marlins, winners of eight of their last nine, relied on late hits from Marsee, Navarreto, and Myers. Texas used nine pitchers, including relievers Latz and Corbin, who hadn’t pitched in relief since 2017. Saturday’s start features Miami’s rookie Adam Mazur (0-4, 4.85 ERA), who has shown promise in limited major league action, against Texas’ Jack Leiter (9-9, 3.82), who has lost three straight and struggled recently. Both teams remain in contention, with the Rangers needing a strong finish to stay alive in the wild card race.
