OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Marcus Semien had four hits and five RBIs, and the Texas Rangers scored 10 times in the second inning of a 15-8 victory over the Oakland Athletics on Tuesday. Jonah Heim added four hits and two RBIs as Texas extended its season-high win streak to four games, outscoring opponents 37-16 during that stretch. “It was good to break out,” manager Bruce Bochy said. “We had a lot of good things going on there. ... Really throughout the lineup, somebody did something to score or knock in a run.” The Rangers sent 16 batters to the plate in the second in their biggest inning since May 23, 2015, when they also scored 10 in the third against the New York Yankees. “I feel like momentum is a real thing,” Semien said. “We came out, obviously, slow yesterday, so it was good to start off like that.” Texas’ 15 runs matched a season high, and its 19 hits set a new mark. |
