Rangers Sweep A’s Behind Heim’s Bloop and Bullpen Dominance

Jonah Heim’s seventh-inning bloop sealed a 2-1 win as Texas’s pitching staff extended its streak of two or fewer runs allowed to seven games

The 2025 Athletics misplayed a pop fly on Wednesday night.

Overview

  • Jonah Heim sliced a two-out fly ball into shallow left field in the seventh, scoring Wyatt Langford for the go-ahead run in Game 3.
  • Jon Gray, activated from the 60-day injured list earlier Wednesday, allowed one hit over two scoreless relief innings to earn the win.
  • Corey Seager opened the scoring with his 15th home run and extended his on-base streak to 24 games.
  • Texas pitchers have now yielded two runs or fewer in seven consecutive games, tying a franchise record set in September 1983.
  • The sweep improved the Rangers to 53-50 and capped a stretch in which they’ve won seven of nine, boosting their push toward a playoff spot.
