Latest News
Sep. 29 1:23 PM PT2:23 PM MT3:23 PM CT4:23 PM ET9:23 PM GMT5:23 AM 北京时间-Young had two hits in his return from a hamstring injury, but Texas lost 11-0 to the Los Angeles Angels on Monday night.
Analysis: Young was back in the Rangers' lineup for just the second time since straining his left hamstring Sept. 1. The third baseman aggravated the injury against Oakland in an aborted return two weeks later, and his absence along with Josh Hamilton's lingering back problems seriously hurt Texas' playoff hopes.
Sep. 29 10:11 AM PT11:11 AM MT12:11 PM CT1:11 PM ET6:11 PM GMT2:11 AM 北京时间-Young, who has missed 21 of 22 games with a strained left hamstring, ran the bases and took batting practice Saturday.
Analysis: He hopes to be back in the lineup for Texas' season-ending road trip. "I'll take another round of batting practice Sunday and see where I am Monday," he said.
Sep. 15 4:26 PM PT5:26 PM MT6:26 PM CT7:26 PM ET12:26 AM GMT8:26 AM 北京时间-With 19 games left and Texas facing its largest deficit for a playoff spot all season, Young was the designated hitter against Oakland on Tuesday night. It was two weeks after the All-Star third baseman strained his left hamstring running out a grounder, and at least a few days earlier than expected.
Analysis: Young, who got hurt Sept. 1, tested himself by running the bases about four hours before the game. His return is a huge boost for the Rangers, who are trying to end a 10-year playoff drought. They have been shut out in back-to-back games.

Feb. 23 6:09 PM PT7:09 PM MT8:09 PM CT9:09 PM ET2:09 AM GMT10:09 AM 北京时间-Young not only played his new position during the Texas Rangers' first intrasquad game Monday, the All-Star shortstop-turned-third baseman also had a new spot in the batting order.
Analysis: Young batted cleanup, behind slugger Josh Hamilton. A career .300 hitter, Young has been primarily a No. 2 or No. 3 batter the past six years and has never hit fourth in his eight-plus major league seasons. Rangers manager Ron Washington, who didn't make out the batting order for either side Monday, cautioned about trying to read too much into Young hitting fourth. "I don't plan on doing that, but we'll see," Washington said.
