PIT vs TEX Preview
Last Meeting ( Apr 22, 2026 ) Pittsburgh 8, Texas 4
Pittsburgh Pirates manager Don Kelly wants rookie starting pitcher Bubba Chandler to be authentic when he takes the mound against the Texas Rangers on Thursday in Arlington, Texas.
"I want Bubba to be Bubba and sometimes that means him showing emotion," Kelly said. "I think it's a fine line for him to learn what that is and how he can control that as he goes through a start."
After the Pirates rallied for an 8-4 win on Wednesday, highlighted by Oneil Cruz's prodigious three-run home run off the top of the right field foul pole in the ninth inning, they'll turn to Chandler in the rubber game of the three-game series.
In his most recent start, Chandler (1-1, 3.15 ERA) earned the 5-1 win against the visiting Tampa Bay Rays last Friday as he gave up one run on three hits and struck out three in six innings.
Opponents are hitting .183 off Chandler in four starts this season. It will mark Chandler's first career appearance against the Rangers.
As the rookie right-hander works his way through his first full major-league season, Kelly said Chandler will learn how to make in-game adjustments. In Kelly's nine-year career as a utility man, he made note of the things former teammate Justin Verlander did to get back on track during a game.
"I look at pitchers in general," Kelly said. "I played behind Verlander. When he would lose his fastball command, it was the curveball he would go to and re-establish his release point. That helped him get his fastball back in the zone.
"I think sometimes throughout a start, if you are feeling off, there may be something you can do. Sometimes that's with a pitch, sometimes that's with a slide step to speed yourself up to get back in the zone and find a way to re-establish that release point. Bubba is an extreme athlete and is very competitive."
Texas is scheduled to start right-hander Jacob deGrom (1-0, 2.29 ERA). In nine career starts against the Pirates, the two-time Cy Young Award winner is 3-3 with a 2.45 ERA and 69 strikeouts.
In his most recent start, deGrom didn't factor into the decision but pitched four scoreless innings. He racked up 88 pitches, gave up four hits, walked two and struck out three in the Rangers' 5-0 road win over the Seattle Mariners last Friday.
Josh Jung launched his third home run of the season on Wednesday. The third baseman has three hits, two runs and three RBIs in the series. Jung leads the Rangers in batting average (.303), doubles (eight), slugging percentage (.526) and OPS (.883).
Consistency is what Jung said has allowed him to get into a groove on offense.
"Coming in we create an approach and a plan and stick to it no matter what," Jung said. "I think that's what's helping me right now. Everyday we come in and put a game plan together and execute no matter what."
The Rangers will be without Wyatt Langford, who was placed on the 10-day injured list on Wednesday with a Grade 1 flexor strain. In 20 games this season, Langford has a .238 batting average, three doubles, two triples, one home run and four RBIs.
