72-76 – Rangers suffer immaculate loss to Diamondbacks
Texas drops third consecutive game in which they led
On September 11, 2026, in Phoenix, Arizona, the Texas Rangers faced the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field. Despite scoring a single run in the top of the fifth inning, the Rangers were overwhelmed by the Diamondbacks, who went on to score nine runs, resulting in an 0-1 loss for the Rangers. The game began with Skip Schumaker offering a free out, leading to the first run of the game.
The middle of the order then failed to capitalize on the bases loaded situation, allowing the Diamondbacks to quickly take advantage. MacKenzie Gore allowed four hits without recording an out in the bottom of the inning, ultimately contributing to the Diamondbacks' nine-run surge. After a demoralizing performance, the Rangers showed no fight, getting struck out nine times in the final inning.
The Diamondbacks' Josh Sborz was named Player of the Game, and the Rangers will return to the field for their next game in Arizona, though it may feel more like a wake rather than a victory celebration.
