ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) â Adolis GarcÃa s infield single scored automatic runner Nick Solak in the 10th inning, giving the Texas Rangers a 3-2 victory over the Houston Astros and a sweep of their Texas rivals Sunday.
It was the second game-ending hit in the 10th in the three-game series for GarcÃa after a three-run homer in the opener. He also went deep twice during Saturday s 8-4 victory.
The series was a strong response by the Rangers to a 1-9 stretch that included a four-game sweep by the Astros last weekend in Houston.
Solak took third on Nate Lowe s groundout and scored on GarcÃa s hard grounder up the middle with the infield in. Jose Altuve made a diving stop, but the second baseman s desperation throw didn t get near home plate.
