Tyler Wagner pitched 2.0 innings, allowing three hits, surrendering no runs, and striking out three. A better performance than his last. Connor Sadzeck earned the win, pitching 2.0 innings, allowing three hits, surrendering the only two runs, and striking one batter. Allen Webster, Alex Claudio, and Jose Leclerc all managed to earn a hold.

Texas is now 2-6 and they’re at the bottom of the Cactus League Standings. Nothing to worry about for now. There’s still an entire month of March for Spring Training. In any case, everyone needs to work on what needs to be worked on. Team needs to be ready for Opening Day.

Tomorrow, Texas will take on the Milwaukee Brewers.
