Jac Caglianone homered twice and the Kansas City Royals used a four-run sixth inning to rally for their third straight victory, 5-3 over the visiting Texas Rangers on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n
Caglianone, who had three hits with a walk, led off the fifth inning with a home run for Kansas City\u2019s first hit against Texas starter Nathan Eovaldi (5-7). He then highlighted the breakout sixth with a two-run shot.<\/p>\n
Both of Caglianone\u2019s career two-homer games have come against Texas, and this one helped the Royals overcome a 2-0 hole and win for the sixth time in eight games.<\/p>\n
Josh Jung and Brandon Nimmo each had two hits for Texas, which had won seven of nine, a stretch that began with a three-game home sweep of Kansas City.<\/p>\n
Texas opened the scoring the second, settling for one run. Royals starter Stephen Kolek walked Wyatt Langford, who went to third on Ezequiel Duran\u2019s double and scored when Jake Burger singled to left. However, Duran was tagged out at home on Evan Carter\u2019s grounder to third baseman Maikel Garcia, then Kyle Higashioka hit into a 5-4-3 double play.<\/p>\n
The Rangers added another run in the fourth. Carter recorded a two-out single, went to second on Kolek\u2019s errant pickoff throw, then stole third and scored on catcher Carter Jensen\u2019s throwing error.<\/p>\n
Kolek left after five innings, charged with two runs (one earned) on eight hits.<\/p>\n
Caglianone got the Royals on the board by lining an Eovaldi pitch 421 feet over the right field fence.<\/p>\n
In the sixth, Jensen doubled and eventually scored on a triple off the center field wall by Garcia, who came home via Vinnie Pasquantino\u2019s ground-rule double to put the Royals ahead. After Salvador Perez popped out, Eovaldi exited. Facing Jalen Beeks, Caglianone found the right field fountains for a 5-2 Kansas City lead.<\/p>\n
Eovaldi was charged with four runs while yielding four hits and three walks in 5 2\/3 innings.<\/p>\n
Texas got a run back in the seventh when Joc Pederson tripled on a ball Caglianone misplayed in right field. He scored on Corey Seager\u2019s groundout to first base.<\/p>\n
Steven Cruz (1-2) retired all four batters faced for the win.<\/p>\n
Kansas City center fielder Kyle Isbel exited with an apparent leg injury following his seventh-inning single.<\/p>\n
