2014 Texas Rangers season

The 2014 Texas Rangers season was the Rangers' 54th season of the franchise and the 43rd since the team relocated to Arlington, Texas. The Rangers failed to improve on their 91–72 record from 2013. To make matters worse, the team suffered from injuries throughout the season and spent a substantial part of the season in last place in the American League West, at one point having a streak of 8–34. Manager Ron Washington resigned on September 5, 2014, citing personal issues. Despite finishing the season with a 13–3 stretch, The Rangers were unable to escape the American League cellar, but did manage to finish 67–95 and third worst in Major League Baseball (MLB), ahead of the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks of the National League. This was the Rangers' first losing season since 2008, and first last place finish in the division since 2007. The Rangers used 40 different pitchers during the season, thus setting a new MLB record. The team played seven extra inning games, the fewest of any MLB team in 2014. == Season standings == === American League West === === American League Wild Card === === Record vs. opponents === === Game log === === Roster === == Player stats == === Batting === Note: G = Games played; AB = At bats; R = Runs; H = Hits; 2B = Doubles; 3B = Triples; HR = Home runs; RBI = Runs batted in; SB = Stolen bases; BB = Walks; AVG = Batting average; SLG = Slugging average Source:[1] === Pitching === Note: W = Wins; L = Losses; ERA = Earned run average; G = Games pitched; GS = Games started; SV = Saves; IP = Innings pitched; H = Hits allowed; R = Runs allowed; ER = Earned runs allowed; BB = Walks allowed; SO = Strikeouts Source:[2] == Farm system == == References == == External links == 2014 Texas Rangers at Baseball Reference
