A panoramic photo shows Globe Life Field during Game 3 of the American League Championship Series between the Texas Rangers and the Houston Astros, Wednesday, Oct. 18, 2023, in Arlington, Texas. A Globe Life Field record crowd of 42,368 was in attendance for the game.Hey, it’s a rivalry, right? You don’t expect the Rangers and Astros to agree on much, if anything.because both the Rangers and Astros preferred it to be. It is unclear which team wanted the roof open and which team wanted it closed.
The Raners were 7-4 with the roof open, 3-2 in night games with the roof open. There did appear to be a significant tilt towards offense when the roof was open, suggesting that, at least under the specific weather conditions of those games, the ball carried better. With the roof open, the Rangers posted a .914 OPS; it was .833 with it closed. The pitching staff allowed a 4.77 ERA and .776 OPS with the roof open, 4.50 with a .732 OPS with it closed.
According to Weather.com - not the independent source MLB uses as its weather forecasting model - it was expected to be 77 degrees with 25% humidity at game time and the temperature was to drop down to 68 over the ensuing four hours. Winds are forecast to be about 4 mph from the Southwest.It’s hard to duplicate specific atmospheric conditions, but the Rangers have played three games with the roof open this year with the game time temperature announced between 75-79 degrees.
