What we learned from Rangers road series win in Tampa Bay

Returning to the scene from where it all began last October, the Texas Rangers earned a second consecutive series victory to start the season after taking two of three against the Tampa Bay Rays, but it wasn't without a high price. Monday's opener was carried by hot-hitting sophomore third baseman Josh Jung, until a hit by pitch in the ninth inning soured the mood as it was revealed that the All-Star starter required surgery for a fractured wrist that will cost him much of the season's first half. The 2023 Rangers thrived under adverse conditions on their way to winning a World Series.
