Garcia's Heroics Lift Rangers Past Yankees

Adolis García's two-run home run in the 10th inning lifted the Texas Rangers to a 4-2 victory over the New York Yankees on Friday at Yankee Stadium.

García's 17th homer came with ghost runner Nathaniel Lowe at second base and García leading off the inning. He belted the first pitch from Yankees reliever Michael King (1-4) into the left-field seats. The Rangers are 2-3 in extra-inning games.

Will Smith earned his 14th save with a scoreless 10th. Joe Barlow (1-0) threw a scoreless ninth to keep the game tied and claimed the victory for the Rangers (47-28).

Dane Dunning went a season-high seven-plus innings. He allowed a run over the first seven innings. After allowing consecutive hits to start the eighth left-hander John King took over.

Dunning allowed two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out two. He forced the Yankees (41-35) into three double plays. 

Kyle Higashioka's sacrifice fly against King tied the game at 2-2 before he retired the next two hitters.

The Rangers led 2-1 lead on Mitch Garver's RBI single in the eighth. They tied that game at 1-1 in the fourth on Leody Taveras' RBI single.

Yankees starter Clarke Schmidt allowed a run on six hits and a walk over 5 1/3 innings.

Right-hander Jon Gray (6-2, 2.96) starts against Yankees right-hander Luis Severino (0-2, 6.30) at 3:05 p.m. Saturday.
