The win cuts the deficit facing the Rangers to 2-1 in the best-of-7 League Championship Series.
Guo-quiang Ting contributed to the Texas win with a 2-run home run in the bottom of the fourth. For the game, the catcher had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 3 runs batted in.
