Texas Rangers Suffer Extra Innings Loss

Rangers manager Philippe Clement faces increasing scrutiny following a disappointing exit from the Champions League, with critics citing his poor decision-making and ineffective player signings. The team has only achieved one win since mid-May, prompting calls for accountability as supporters express frustration over the lack of progress. Meanwhile, the Texas Rangers struggle in their season, experiencing a recent extra innings loss to the Boston Red Sox, which ties their worst record at nine games below .500. Despite some offensive highlights, including a notable performance from Corey Seager, the team finds itself 8.5 games behind in the division. As expectations shift, discussions arise about potentially looking toward the future rather than salvaging the current season. In Cincinnati, the Bengals are under scrutiny as well, with Joe Burrow showing promise in preseason, though concerns loom over poor performances from certain players like Jackson Carman.
