Twins rally to beat slumping Rangers 9-7 in 10 innings

The AL Central-leading Twins beat the still-sliding Texas Rangers 9-7.

ARLINGTON, TEXAS - SEPTEMBER 02: Aroldis Chapman #45 of the Texas Rangers stands on the back of the mound during the tenth inning against the Minnesota Twins at Globe Life Field on September 02, 2023 in Arlington, Texas.

Solano had a solo homer and a two-run single when the Twins, after being behind 4-0, went ahead 6-4. He was then playing second base in the eighth when he had a tremendous running catch in short right with his back to the infield, preventing another run right after Texas had tied the game. Adolis Garcia and Sam Huff hit early two-run homers for the Rangers , who lost for the 12th time in 15 games overall, including their last six at home.

The Rangers got even at 6 in the eighth on a sacrifice fly by Robbie Grossman after Emilo Pagan, the seventh Minnesota pitcher, walked the first three batters he faced to load the bases. Montgomery, acquired from the St. Louis Cardinals on July 30, had been 2-1 with a 2.30 ERA in his first starts for the Rangers. He allowed six runs and seven hits over 3 2/3 innings against the Twins.
