Texas Rangers at St Louis Cardinals Betting Tips – Rangers To Draw First Blood In MLB Series
The Texas Rangers are tipped to take the series opener against the St Louis Cardinals. Despite a recent series win against the Cubs, the Cardinals' lack of offensive firepower is a concern, especially with the Rangers averaging five runs per game over the past 15 contests. While both teams have recent losing records over their previous ten games, Texas has swept Kansas City and leads the all-time matchup. The recommendation is to back the Rangers, as their superior run production is expected to make the difference.

Verdict
Texas’ road form has not been the best, but the one thing this team has done consistently in recent weeks is produce runs.
The Cardinals, on the other hand, have seen their bats fail to produce on several occasions, so we are backing the Rangers in this one.
