You could mean either the New York Rangers (NHL) or the Texas Rangers (MLB), and both are playing today.
New York Rangers (NHL)
- Opponent: Tampa Bay Lightning at 7:00 pm ET today (Apr 15, 2026).[1][2]
- US TV/streaming:
- Local NY area: MSG Network.[2][1]
- Streaming: NHL Power Play on ESPN+ carries the game.[2]
Texas Rangers (MLB)
- The Rangers are at the Oakland Athletics at 9:40 pm ET today (Jackie Robinson Day).[3]
- How to watch:
- In the Rangers’ home region with cable/satellite: Rangers Sports Network (RSN) via providers like DIRECTV (channel 677), U-verse, Spectrum, etc.[4][3]
- Out of market: MLB.TV subscription (also accessible via services like Fubo).[5][6][3]
- Some games appear on national networks (FOX, FS1, NBC/Peacock, Apple TV+), but today’s Apr 15 game in Oakland is listed without a separate national channel, so it should be on RSN locally and MLB.TV out of market.[7][3]
