Logan Henderson held Texas to one hit over seven innings as Milwaukee beat the Rangers 6-1, handing Texas a third straight loss and leaving the club two games behind Houston. Danny Jansen’s solo homer was the only damage against Henderson, while Milwaukee piled up 14 hits.

Austin gets into why another dead offensive night makes the smaller managerial debates feel secondary, the Brewers’ pressure game versus the identity Texas said it wanted, Cody Bradford’s long-term role, Jack Leiter’s new biceps setback, September roster decisions, and what Henderson’s emergence says about the Rangers’ ability to develop top-of-the-rotation pitching. Then it’s Cal Quantrill and Saturday’s response game. Leiter is being shut down for a few days after experiencing right biceps soreness during his latest rehab outing.
