McMahon has been a consistent performer for the Rockies, showcasing his skills across the board.

His ability to get on base and contribute significantly in each game makes him a player to watch.


On the other side, Marcus Semien has been nothing short of spectacular for the Rangers. Semien's exceptional performance, highlighted by an impressive .800 batting average in one of the previous games and an overall slugging percentage (SLG) that led to five RBIs, showcases his pivotal role in the Rangers' lineup. His OPS (on-base plus slugging) standing at 2.4 from that game underlines his offensive prowess.
