Game time is 7:05 p.m. on Thursday, August 29 and Friday, August 30, while first pitch has been moved to 7:35 p.m. for Saturday, August 31 to accommodate the pre-game number retirement ceremony for Michael Young. The brief homestand concludes with a 2:05 p.m. matchup on Sunday, September 1.

The Rangers will celebrate Korean Heritage Night on Friday. Pre-game festivities will include performances by Korean dance teams Hues and UNIT X.
