The Premier League summary of the matches for Wednesday, June 15, 2022 in America: a rare achievement achieved twice

ARLINGTON, Texas – Portuguese superstar Luis Garcia and loyalist Phil Mattone both had “authentic innings” – nine pitches and three strokes – and Martin Maldonado had a six-stroke first-half hit and led the Houston Astros to a 9-2 victory for the Texas Rangers on Wednesday afternoon.

Maldonado hit a fine two-round double in the opening half before firing at home. Suddenly, the Astros (39-24), the leaders of the American League’s Western Conference, won their seventh straight series against their Texas rivals.

In six innings on the hill, Garcia (4-5) fought nine hits without conceding a walk, while Rangers limited him to two and four strokes.

Garcia had a five-stroke streak that started with three strokes on nine pitches in the second half. His victims were Nathaniel Lowe, Ezequiel Doran and Brad Miller.

These are the same three hitters who walked to the plate against Mattoon at the start of the seventh inning. Mattoon also left them in the dust with only nine throws.

According to Astros and Rangers officials, this is the first time in Major League history that two clean runs have been held in the same game, whether it’s on the same roster or one by both teams.

After the match, both Astros bowlers find a ball from their original innings in their locker, with markers marking their achievement.

Maldonado, a 35-year-old receiver, found himself at the center of this feat.

“To be a part of this moment, every time you participate in a historic event (…) I am happy to be the recipient of this situation,” Maldonado said, adding that he does not remember Dr. In a pure round, not to mention two.

For his part, coach Dusty Becker, whose 73rd birthday was, expressed his happiness with the performance of his players.

“It’s been a long time since we had our first run like this,” Baker said.

“A couple of records, the same three players alternating three strokes on nine pitches. (…) So it was a good day for us.”

The only club in the American Western League with a positive record, the Astros suffered four defeats in five games after conceding the first game of their series against Rangers.

The Astros continued their 4-3 victory on Tuesday night in a four-stroke impulse in the eighth inning before beginning the final game of the series with another dash.

In that first inning, the Astros sent 11 bats to the board. The front nine faced Tyson Miller (0-1), who surrendered after allowing Maldonado to double, the ninth in the batting inning, on the right court.

Round Rock’s AAA Miller was called up to the Rangers when the team put Glenn Otto on their COVID-19 absence list hours before Friday’s game against the White Sox of Chicago, with which Otto was supposed to be the start.

Miller made two and three runs on a break on Friday and was sent up the hill on Wednesday when it was Otto’s turn to face the Astros.

The Astros’ rookie hitter Jose Altuve took Miller’s third kick in the match, before the match filled the singles and walk-in bases.

Then Yordan Alvarez had a double hit for two rounds, expanding his streak to 16 games with at least one track left. Kyler Tucker followed up with another exit that produced another run.

Maldonado started the fourth inning with his fifth trip of the season to make it 7-2. Yuli Gouriel added Homer’s double in eighth place.

Garcia’s strike streak ended when Cory Seeger hit his 13th home of the season, in the third inning.
