Rangers erupt late to rally past Tampa Bay

Finally, a seventh inning the Texas Rangers can celebrate.

The Rangers rallied from a three-run deficit in the seventh inning to storm back for a 9-5 win Tuesday night against the Tampa Bay Rays at Globe Life Park.

The Rangers, down 5-2 with two outs in the seventh, surged back to life on a jolt by Elvis Andrus, who ripped a three-run homer into the stands in left field to tie it 5-5.

It was Andrus’ seventh homer, one behind his career-high of eight, which he hit last season. The seventh-inning rally follows after a series of rough seventh innings for the Rangers’ bullpen this season, including Monday night.
