The Texas Rangers look to end a five-game losing streak Friday night at Fenway Park at 6:10p.m. CDT.

Last night, the Rangers lost to the Boston Red Sox after Rob Refsnyder's game-ending single ended a four-run ninth inning rally to best the Rangers 9-8. Texas reliever Johnathan Hernandez gave up all four runs in the ninth. 

The Rangers are now 7-9 in games under interim manager Tony Beasley. Texas has 33 games remaining in their schedule and five on this road trip.

Dallas Keuchel takes the mound for the Rangers in a redemption game from his first start for Texas, where he surrendered seven runs in 5 1/3 innings. The Rangers signed Keuchel on July 26 to a minor league deal after being released by the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Boston enters the game on a two-game win streak. The Red Sox and the Rangers are 4-6 in their last 10 games.
