Watch: Adolis García’s walkoff blast off of former Texas Ranger Kirby Yates tops Dodgers

If you haven’t noticed, Texas Rangers slugger Adolis García has a flair for the dramatic. He provided another incredible moment in the late innings Saturday to beat the Dodgers and lift the Rangers to win No. 13 on the season. The Dodgers pitching staff held the struggling Texas offense in check all afternoon, as Texas had just tallied three hits in the first eight innings. The Rangers entered the bottom of the ninth trailing 3-2, with their only offense all day coming from a two-run blast from Kyle Higashioka in the third inning. Los Angeles brought on Kirby Yates, who was an All-Star closer for the Rangers in 2024, for the save. Josh Smith led the inning off with a double, putting the tying run in scoring position.
