He's the one that's saying you gain an advantage by losing and lose an advantage by winning. Not me.

The next two games are irrelevant.
5 games were played.
3 were in Texas.
The Rangers had an advantage in the 5 games that were played.
Are you really disputing this?
Let's switch it around and say that the Rangers won the series 4-1 in 5 games (whoever won is irrelevant as well but go with it). They still would have had 3 home games in a 5 game series and thus had home field advantage in the series, in a series in which they were not supposed to have home field advantage.
