Rangers Shut Out Yankees 2-0 Behind Eovaldi, Tellez at Globe Life

The Texas Rangers defeated the New York Yankees 2-0 at Globe Life Field, powered by Nathan Eovaldi's dominant pitching performance and Rowdy Tellez's crucial two-run single in the eighth inning. Eovaldi pitched eight shutout innings, allowing only one hit and striking out six, extending his remarkable streak with a 1.38 ERA this season and earning American League Pitcher of the Month honors for July. Tellez's clutch hit provided the only runs in a game where the Rangers struggled with runners in scoring position, going 1-for-16 despite eight total hits. The Yankees, despite Aaron Judge's return from injury, managed just two hits and suffered their fifth consecutive loss, with reliever Devin Williams continuing his struggles by allowing the go-ahead runs. Judge was held hitless and remains limited due to a tendon strain, while the Yankees face challenges both offensively and in their bullpen. The Rangers' strong pitching and timely hitting highlight their season's resilience and ability to win close games, while the Yankees continue a difficult stretch on the road.
