Ferguson (2-2) took the loss against the Rangers on Saturday, allowing an earned run on two hits, a walk and a hit-by-pitch over 1.1 innings. He struck out three.

It was the ultimate tale of two innings for Ferguson, who opened his appearance by striking out Corey Seager, Josh Smith and Adolis Garcia swinging on 12 pitches in the eighth inning to preserve a 2-2 tie. However, he never came close to replicating the feat in the ninth, putting three of the first four hitters he faced on before surrendering a game-winning single to Leody Taveras. It was the second time in three outings that Ferguson gave up a run following a 10-appearance scoreless streak that had encompassed the majority of August. Despite Saturday's hiccup, Ferguson should remain the top setup option to closer Mason Miller over the season's final month unless he goes on an extended stretch of poor performances.
