Stephen Vogt's routine grounder with two outs in the ninth inning glanced off Texas shortstop Corey Seager's glove, scoring the go-ahead run as the Oakland Athletics rallied past the Rangers 8-7 on Wednesday night.
The A's trailed 7-6 entering the ninth. Pinch-hitter Sheldon Neuse led off with a single and Vimael Machin tied it with a two-out double.
Domingo Acevedo earned his first save. With a runner on second base and two out, Acevedo entered to cool off the Rangers' Mark Mathias by striking him out.According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Mathias was the first Rangers player since Roughned Odor in 2019 to hit home runs in three straight at-bats. No Ranger has had a longer home run streak in their 51 seasons.
With the roof open, the Rangers' home played as a hitters' park. Each team hit three home runs — Mathias, Marcus Semien and Jonah Heim for Texas and Dermis Garcia, Seth Brown and Tony Kemp for Oakland.
