Corey Seager and Jake Burger each contributed three hits as the Texas Rangers defeated the Los Angeles Angels 3-1 in a game where Seager drove in two runs, securing the Rangers' seventh consecutive home win. Patrick Corbin claimed his first win with the Rangers, pitching 5 1/3 innings of one-run ball, supported by Luke Jackson's perfect ninth inning for his sixth save of the season. Despite José Soriano allowing 10 hits, he limited the Rangers to three runs, all scored in the second inning.
A notable moment in the game was manager Bruce Bochy's grandson, Braxton Bochy, throwing the first pitch on Bochy's 70th birthday. The Rangers' pitching staff shone with six three-up, three-down innings. In the upcoming game, Texas aims for a series sweep with right-hander Kumar Rocker facing off against Los Angeles' right-hander Jack Kochanowicz.
