Recap: Texas Rangers VS New York Yankees 2025-05-21

"The Bronx Bombers are back in business, baby. The New York Yankees (28-19) took down the Texas Rangers (25-24) 4-3 on Wednesday, and they're looking to do it all again on Thursday. Carlos Rodon is on the hill for the Yanks, and with their 65% win rate as favorites, you've got to like their chances. I mean, who doesn't love a good -159 favorite, am I right?

Aaron Judge is still crushing it, batting .403 with 16 home runs, because of course he is. He's like the superhero of baseball, minus the cape (although, can you imagine?). And let's not forget Paul Goldschmidt, who's hitting .339 with a slugging percentage of .486 - the man's a machine.

The Rangers, on the other hand, are struggling as underdogs, winning only 32% of their games. But hey, they've got some bright spots, like Wyatt Langford's nine home runs and Josh Jung's .288 batting average. Nathan Eovaldi will try to silence the Yankees' bats, but it's a tough task - they've hit an MLB-high 81 home runs, because, well, they're the Yankees.

So, will the Yanks keep rolling, or can the Rangers pull off the upset? One thing's for sure - with these two teams, it's gonna be a wild ride. Grab some popcorn, folks, and let's play ball!"
