The Rangers were crushed in the series opener in Los Angeles. Texas lost to the Dodgers 15-2 in the first outing of a three-game set at Dodger Stadium. Ezequiel Duran brought home both of Texas' runs on a two-run homer in the seventh. Dane Dunning was charged with the loss and slipped to 4-and-5 after letting up six runs through three-and-two-thirds innings. The Rangers have lost five of seven to sit at 31-and-35. They visit the Dodgers again tonight. Right-hander Jon Gray will start opposite LA righty Walker Buehler.
