Seager homers, Rangers beat Diamondbacks 7-6 for first road series win in 2 months

On September 13, 2026, the Texas Rangers secured their first road series win since the start of July by defeating the Arizona Diamondbacks 7-6. The game took place at Chase Field in Phoenix, Arizona. Texas managed to score seven runs while Arizona only managed six. The Rangers' offensive production was hindered on June 30, when they failed to capitalize on base hits.

However, that changed when Corey Seager hit a two-run home run just two batters into the game, giving Texas an early 2-0 lead. The game remained close until Justin Foscue's aggressive play in the field paid off. After an error, Foscue took off for third base on a Seager single and reached just before the throw. The inning saw Jung score on a single, making it 2-1, and Nimmo's single put the Rangers up 5-1.

The Rangers continued to build on their lead, adding two more runs in the next inning. Tyler Alexander struggled in the seventh inning, allowing the Diamondbacks to score back into the game, but Robert Garcia shut down the Diamondbacks with a scoreless inning. Jacob Latz secured the win with a save in the ninth inning, marking the Rangers' first road series victory since the first day of July.

With only two weeks left in the season, the Rangers look to their superstar shortstop, Corey Seager, to be a difference-maker in the final stretch.
