Published Sun, 23 Feb 2025 10:50:52 GMT

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Adolis García was in the on-deck circle with three home runs and one more good chance to try for a fourth while Josh Sborz was making a rare plate appearance for a Texas pitcher.“Yeah, he had orders not to swing the bat,” Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said of the right-handed reliever.Sborz followed those orders, taking three strikes on four 55-plus mph sliders from Oakland infielder Jace Peterson with the Rangers on their way to an 18-3 victory Saturday night.Looking to match the major league record for home runs in a game, García’s second chance at his fourth of the night ended the same way as the first: a double. The first two-bagger — in the seventh inning — drove in two runs, just as all three homers had. The 30-year-old slugger from Cuba finished with a career-high eight RBIs to go with his first three-homer game. He has seven homers and 28 RBIs this season.García launched two-run shots in the first, third and fifth — all at least 400 feet — as the ...
