ARLINGTON, Texas \u2014 Nathan Eovaldi pitched eight sharp innings, Rowdy Tellez blooped a two-run single on a 10-pitch at-bat in the eighth, and the Texas Rangers<\/a> spoiled Aaron Judge<\/a>‘s return with a 2-0 victory over the New York Yankees<\/a> on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n

Judge was 0-for-3 with two strikeouts as the designated hitter after\u00a0being activated\u00a0from the 10-day injured list. The all-star slugger has a tendon strain in his right elbow, and the Yankees plan to start a throwing program Wednesday to see how soon Judge can return to the outfield.<\/p>\n

The Yankees have lost five in a row, one shy of their season-worst, and 19 of their past 24 road games.<\/p>\n

Anthony Volpe was the only baserunner against Eovaldi, reaching on a hustling double in the third when his soft liner landed behind shortstop Corey Seager in shallow left field.<\/p>\n

Eovaldi (10-3) has allowed just two runs total in his past six starts. It was his seventh start since returning from right elbow inflammation.<\/p>\n

Tellez fouled off four two-strike pitches from Devin Williams with the bases loaded and one out before dumping a ball in front of centre fielder Trent Grisham.<\/p>\n

Giancarlo Stanton is temporarily displaced as the DH with Judge unable to play the outfield. He came on as a pinch hitter as the potential tying run in the ninth, but he grounded into a double play started by a diving stop from Seager.<\/p>\n

Williams has allowed a run in four consecutive appearances for the first time in his seven-year career. The right-hander has allowed 26 earned runs this season, matching his combined total from 2022-24.<\/p>\n

Yankees LHP Carlos Rod\u00f3n (11-7, 3.34 ERA) is set to face RHP Jack Leiter (7-6, 4.10 ERA) on Wednesday in the series finale.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"ARLINGTON, Texas \u2014 Nathan Eovaldi pitched eight sharp innings, Rowdy Tellez blooped a two-run single on a 10-pitch…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":48697,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[435],"tags":[49,48,462,82],"class_list":["post-48696","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mlb","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-mlb","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48696","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=48696"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48696\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/48697"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=48696"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=48696"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=48696"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
