Rangers Clutch Win Ends Losing Streak | San Antonio News

The Texas Rangers snapped a five-game road losing streak with a dramatic 4-1 win over the Los Angeles Angels, thanks to Brandon Nimmo’s clutch tenth-inning single that brought in the go-ahead run. The Rangers, now 5-1 in their last six games and just half a game behind Houston in the AL West, added two more runs later on a Jake Burger single. Despite Mike Trout’s 20th home run of the season giving LA an early lead, the Angels couldn’t hold on — a key defensive play by Wade Meckler in the seventh saved them from disaster, but ultimately wasn’t enough. MacKenzie Gore, recently reinstated from paternity leave after his first child’s birth, pitched five strong innings striking out nine. Reid Detmers held the Angels to one run over six innings. With the series continuing Tuesday, the Rangers are showing signs of resurgence and could be turning the corner as they chase the division lead.
