Scoreless through 9, Rangers win 2-1 over Angels when Langford has tying RBI and winning run in 10th
On Friday night, the Texas Rangers defeated the Los Angeles Angels 2-1 in a tense game that went into extra innings. In the 10th inning, Wyatt Langford contributed significantly to the Rangers' victory. He hit a double that tied the game, and then he scored the winning run following Denzer Guzman's throwing error. Prior to the 10th inning, Guzman had put the Angels ahead with an RBI double in the eighth inning.
Guzman made a solid play on a grounder by Ezequiel Duran, but his wide throw to second base during the inning-ending forceout allowed Langford to score. Tyler Alexander pitched the Rangers to victory in the 10th inning, striking out two batters. Ben Joyce pitched 2/3 of an inning for the Angels, giving up two hits and two runs, none of which were earned.
Ryan Johnson, a Dallas-born right-hander, is set to pitch for the Angels in the next game. Cody Bradford secured the Rangers' win with his pitching.
