The Oakland Athletics dropped their second straight game Sunday with a 9-4 loss to the Texas Rangers.
The Rangers jumped out to an early lead as Marcus Semien jumped on the first pitch of the afternoon from Luis Medina and took it out to left for a solo home run. Medina retired Corey Seager, but then hit Nathaniel Lowe. Mitch Garner doubled to put runners at second and third and both runners came in to score on a double by Robbie Grossman. Medina recovered and was able to retire the next two hitters to escape with no further damage.
