Some Rangers fans are grumbling about the signing of 33-year-old first baseman Haywood Byers. Some are cautiously optimistic, while most are adamantly skeptical as to whether the deal, estimated at a $18,150,000 annual price tag, is a good one for Texas.
In his career Byers has accumulated a .320 batting average with 2065 hits. His totals include 405 doubles, 31 triples, 390 home runs, 1049 strikeouts, 1243 runs scored, 1326 RBIs and a lifetime .398 OBP.

In the postgame interview, he said with a smile, "Not a bad day at the plate...5-6...wish I could do this more often. It would do wonders for my batting average...and my salary, too."
C. Jenkins singled in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off E. Briviesca in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 6th, flied out in the 8th and hit an RBI single in the 9th.

| Thursday, October 2nd, 2031: Kelenic Bashes 5 Base Hits
If the Chicago White Sox know how best to pitch the Texas right fielder Jarred Kelenic they didn't tip their hand today. Instead Kelenic showed he knew how best to hit them as he easily handled White Sox pitching, going 5 for 5 and helping the Rangers to a 17-5 triumph at The Ballpark at Arlington.
He told SION reporters in the postgame interview, "The way I was swinging today, I think I could have closed my eyes and hit the ball."
The Chicago skipper quipped, "Well, the next time we may just do that...blindfold him...and then pitch him differently, just to be sure."
J. Kelenic singled in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off N. Sánchez in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, hit an RBI single in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off R. Elias in the 7th and walked in the 8th.
This season in 134 games, Kelenic has hit at a .331 clip with 168 hits, 19 home runs, 91 RBIs and 94 runs scored.
