Danny Jansen's two-out single in the bottom of the ninth inning drove in Alejandro Osuna with the winning run in the Texas Rangers' 6-5 walk-off victory over the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks on Wednesday night.
The Rangers were down to their last out but scored three runs with two outs. Ezequiel Duran doubled home Josh Jung to make the score 5-4 against Diamondbacks closer Paul Sewald (0-4). Osuna walked, and Jake Burger's single to left tied the game.
Sewald, who blew his first save of the season in 10 chances, was removed, and reliever Juan Morillo gave up the winning hit to Jansen.
Burger went 2-for-4 with four runs batted in. Jung and Evan Carter went 2-for-4 with a run, while Osuna scored twice. The Rangers took two of three games in the series against the Diamondbacks, and Texas has won four of its last five.
Cal Quantrill (2-0) pitched a scoreless top of the ninth for Texas.
Ildemaro Vargas gave the Diamondbacks a 5-3 lead with a two-run single in the top of the ninth, after Arizona trailed by three.
Arizona went into the ninth inning 1-for-13 with runners in scoring position. But the first four hitters of the inning reached base, including Nolan Arenado, who doubled in the tying run to knot the game at 3-all.
The next batter was Vargas, hitless on the night until he lined a single to left-center field to drive in Geraldo Perdomo and Arenado.
The Rangers broke a scoreless tie in the bottom of the fifth inning when Burger hit a three-run home run just inside the right field foul pole off Diamondbacks starter Ryne Nelson. It was Burger's seventh home run of the season.
Nelson struck out eight in seven innings of work. He allowed the three runs on four hits, no walks and hit a batter.
The Diamondbacks made it 3-1 in the top of the sixth on doubles by Arenado and Lourdes Gurriel Jr., and cut the Texas lead to one an inning later with a bases-loaded sacrifice fly from Arenado that allowed Ketel Marte to score.
The Diamondbacks had runners at second and third in the top of the eighth inning with Marte, one of their top players, up to bat against Rangers reliever Tyler Alexander. Marte who was 2-for-4 on the night, bounced out to shortstop to end the inning.
Arenado also went 2-for-4, scored twice and drove in a pair for Arizona, who stranded 13 runners.
