The Texas Rangers activated Nathan Eovaldi from the 15-day injured list to start their World Series rematch against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday night, rather than have the right-hander pitch in a rehab game.

Eovaldi, an All-Star last season in his Rangers debut, had been out with a right groin strain since departing after 5u2153 scoreless innings against the Washington Nationals on May 2. He was 2-2 with a 2.61 ERA in his first seven starts.

Texas also activated rookie outfielder Wyatt Langford from the 10-day IL after he hadn't played since May 4 because of a right hamstring strain.
