Rangers Win at Oakland, 7-0
Oakland had no answer for Texas Rangers starter Sonny Gray, who flummoxed Athletics hitters as the Rangers cruised to victory, 7-0. Gray, the winner, moves to 3-2. He threw 6.2 innings of 3-hit ball, while fanning 4 and giving up 1 walk. The Athletics fall to 9-16 and continue their rocky start to the 2025 season.

Nick Ciuffo had a big 3-run home run for the Rangers in the top of the fourth inning. With Texas leading 3-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a changeup from Jake Bray, who signed a 3-year contract worth $13,920,000 on 02/08/2025, and punished it. The result was his 2nd home run of the season, which put the Rangers on top, 6-0.

"Good baseball players make you a smarter manager," said Texas manager Ron Robinson.
