ARLINGTON, Texas - The MLB is changing things up for Game 4 of the ALCS between the Texas Rangers and Houston Astros by opening the roof of Globe Life Field in Arlington.
The Rangers made the announcement on social media just after noon with the caption "Beautiful night for baseball."
During the playoffs, the MLB makes the decision about the roof status, not the Rangers.
Temperatures are expected to be 76 degrees for the 7:03 p.m. first pitch.
The roof has not been opened since May 21, when the Rangers played the Colorado Rockies.
Since the stadium opened in 2020, the Rangers have played 44 games with the roof open. The Rangers are 20-24 in those games.
