Jonah Heim hit a looping fly ball that dropped between two fielders in shallow left field, scoring Wyatt Langford from first base, and the Texas Rangers beat the Athletics 2-1 on Wednesday night for a sweep.

The Texas Rangers have clawed back into the race and could flip their former All-Star outfielder for a more consistent bat at the deadline.

The Rangers have the second-worst record against left-handed pitching and are dead last in OBP, slugging and OPS against lefties.

Jacob deGrom struck out nine and allowed a leadoff homer in six solid innings, and Corey Seager, Marcus Semien and Adolis García homered as the Texas Rangers beat the Athletics 6-2.

Nathan Eovaldi’s scratch from his scheduled Sunday start was a bit of a surprise. Now, the Texas Rangers are hopeful he can start against the Athletics.

The Rangers also recalled outfielder Michael Helman and pitcher Cole Winn and sent infielder Justin Foscue and outfielder Alejandro Osuna back to the minors.

Langford used an electrifying display of baserunning to capitalize on the Athletics’ colossal mistake in the seventh inning.
