The Texas Rangers and Atlanta Braves are set to clash Friday evening at Globe Life Field, with Nathan Eovaldi and Joey Wentz getting the nods on the mound. Both teams enter the weekend looking to build momentum in very different playoff races.

Atlanta, currently fourth in the NL East with a 44-57 mark, has had its share of struggles this season, particularly at the plate. The Braves’ offense has yet to find its stride, posting a team slash line of .243/.317/.388 and averaging just 4.14 runs per contest, placing them in the bottom third across the league.

The defending champion Rangers, meanwhile, sit third in the AL West with a 53-50 record. But for all their pedigree, Texas hasn’t exactly lit up the scoreboard either. The bats have lagged all year, ranking 27th in team OPS (.673) while putting up 4.03 runs per game, a stat that has left fans wanting more.

Here, GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch Texas Rangers vs Atlanta Braves MLB game, plus plenty more.
