The Texas Rangers failed to make the playoffs despite having a shot to do so. The Rangers' loss on the final day of the season means they will head into the offseason instead of competing in the postseason.
ESPN and the Dallas News report that the Rangers' chances were largely dependent on the performances of Corey Seager and Jacob deGrom, but they came up short. However, the Twins' inability to play spoilers and the Rangers' victory at Target Field earlier in the week kept their playoff hopes alive, albeit briefly.
