Mandatory Credit: Raymond Carlin III-USA TODAY Sports After back-to-back intentional walks loaded the bases, Wyatt Langford lined a walk-off RBI single to left in the bottom of the 10th inning to give the Texas Rangers a 4-3 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Monday night in Arlington, Texas.
Langford also stepped up for Texas in the ninth, doubling with one out, stealing third and scoring on Jonah Heim's two-out single to forge a 3-3 tie.
Paul DeJong had put Chicago up 3-2 in the top of the frame, blasting a solo shot to left.
Although the Rangers ended up leaving runners stranded at second and third in the ninth, Langford still managed to deliver an inning later as Texas took the opener of a four-game set.
Rangers reliever Jonathan Hernandez (3-0) was credited with the win. White Sox reliever John Brebbia was one strike away from ending the game in the ninth, but he was instead pinned with his second blown save of the season.
Steven Wilson (1-6) took the loss. Chicago has now dropped eight games in a row.
Offense was initially hard to come by for the Rangers. Texas had just three hits through the first eight innings, including solo home runs by Marcus Semien and Leody Taveras. Semien's blast tied the game at 1-1 in the third, while Taveras drew the Rangers even at 2-2 in the fifth.
Texas starter Michael Lorenzen gave up two runs on six hits in five innings. He walked two and struck out eight.
Chicago starter Erick Fedde went 6 1/3 innings, allowing two runs and three hits. He walked two and fanned five.
Tommy Pham put the White Sox up 1-0 in the first, blasting his fifth home run of the season. Brooks Baldwin later recorded his first major league RBI, singling home Andrew Vaughn in the fourth to give Chicago a 2-1 lead.
The White Sox went 1-for-14 with runners in scoring position. They also missed out on a run in the third, when Luis Robert Jr. was thrown out at home after a ball trickled away from catcher Heim.
