Adrian Beltre was in the Rangers' starting lineup as the designated hitter a day after having a root canal in Dallas.
Beltre, who was a late scratch for Wednesday's game against the Astros, left Globe Life Park around 5 p.m. when a dentist became available in Dentist.
Beltre had a crown placed on the tooth a few days prior to when he started feeling pain on Tuesday evening. Finding a dentist available on the 4th of July was a bit tricky but Rangers' trainer Kevin Harmon helped Beltre locate one.
"The doctor was nice enough to see me once he found a dental assistant," Beltre said.
