Freddie Freeman hit a two-run double and a solo homer before scoring the go-ahead run as the Dodgers beat the Texas Rangers, 11-5, on Friday night, snapping the AL West leaders’ six-game winning streak.
J.D. Martinez had two RBI singles and drew a bases-loaded walk for the Dodgers, who played at Globe Life Field for the first time since winning the 2020 World Series, National League Championship Series and NL Division Series there in the neutral-site postseason during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Corey Seager, the Dodgers’ shortstop when he was the MVP of both that World Series and NLCS, homered against the team he left in free agency two winters ago for a $325 million, 10-year deal in Texas. The All-Star led off the sixth inning with his 15th homer to put the Rangers ahead 5-4, but he exited the game two innings later after hurting his hand on a headfirst slide into second base for a double.
