## Resource

The Texas Rangers roar into first place in the AL West with a 7-3 demolition of the Astros, fueled by Wyatt Langford’s leadoff homer and Jake Burger’s three-run blast in the eighth. Langford’s back-to-back homers—including a walk-off the night before—signal a hot streak, while Cole Winn’s clutch seventh- and eighth-inning shutout seals the win. Despite Yordan Alvarez’s 200th homer and 30th of the season, the Astros can’t hold on. The Rangers, now 3 games ahead of Houston and 1.5 ahead of Seattle, are proving they’re the team to beat—with timely offense and bullpen resilience.
