Game Updates
The Texas Rangers silenced the Yankees' high-powered offense with a masterful pitching performance, securing a 2-0 shutout victory Tuesday night at Globe Life Field. Nathan Eovaldi dominated from the mound, tossing eight scoreless innings while allowing just one hit—a fifth-inning single to Ryan McMahon—and striking out six. The Yankees' lineup, featuring MVP candidate Aaron Judge and sluggers Giancarlo Stanton and Cody Bellinger, was completely stifled, combining for just two hits as New York was held scoreless for the first time since June.
Texas' offense struck early, with Adolis García and Joc Pederson each collecting two hits, while Rowdy Tellez delivered the decisive blow—a two-run single in the third inning. The Rangers' bullpen sealed the win, with Phil Maton closing out the ninth, as Texas handed the Yankees their third loss in four games. For New York, the defeat raises questions about their offensive consistency, while the Rangers continue to build momentum in a tight AL wild-card race.
