Texas managed only one run and four hits as Minnesota rolled to a 4-1 victory, extending the Rangers’ eight-game skid. Pederson supplied the lone bright spot with a leadoff homer, but the Texas lineup stalled the rest of the night while Minnesota created 19 scoring chances.

Up next, Jacob deGrom is poised for what may be his final start of a productive season against Taj Bradley, with the penultimate game at The Shed set for 7:05 CT Wednesday on the Rangers Sports Network.
