Brewers vs Rangers: How Michael Helman became unlikely hero to close gap on AL West lead
Milwaukee Brewers vs Texas Rangers: The Rangers are currently on a three-game home winning streak.
Having completed a thrilling 5-4 win in their last game against the Milwaukee Brewers, the Texas Rangers are now aiming to extend their dominant run in the MLB's three-game interleague series. The highly anticipated fixture between the Brewers and the Rangers will be played on September 10 at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, Reuters reported.
The Rangers are currently enjoying a three-game home winning streak. They had emerged victorious in the series-opening contest 5-0 against the Brewers. Rookie Michael Helman came up with a two-run home run and pulled off a homer in the fifth inning to guide the Rangers to a 5-4 triumph in the last game against the Brewers.
The outcome was enough to help the Rangers claim a comprehensive series victory at Globe Life Field. This also marked Rangers’ third victory in a row and overall 13th in 17 games. The Rangers have won their second straight series against a division-leading opponent after claiming two of three games against the Astros last weekend.

Helman has also become the first Rangers player with five or more homers and 17 or more RBIs within his first 22 games since Nathaniel Lowe in 2021 (5 HR, 18 RBIs).
