Deadspin | Max Muncy blasts 3 HRs to propel Dodgers past Rangers Apr 10, 2026; Los Angeles, California, USA; Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (5) hits a three-run home run home run against the Los Angeles Dodgers during the third inning at Dodger Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Jayne Kamin-Oncea-Imagn Images Max Muncy’s two-out solo home run in the bottom of the ninth capped off his second career three-run game, and it gave the Los Angeles Dodgers an 8-7 walkoff win over the Texas Rangers Friday night in Los Angeles. Andy Pages homered and collected his fourth three-hit game of the season, and the Dodgers overcame the first blown save of the season from closer Edwin Diaz, who ended up being the winning pitcher. The Dodgers won for the sixth time in seven games, notched their sixth comeback win this season and became the first team in Major League Baseball to reach 10 wins in 2026. Pages continued his torrid start to the season with his team-leading fourth home of the season, a two-run shot in the bottom of the eighth inning that gave the Dodgers a 7-4 lead. Pages also hit a go-ahead two-run double in the sixth inning, giving the Dodgers a 5-4 lead after they trailed 4-2. The Dodgers took a 1-0 lead on Muncy’s home run in the second inning. Then former Dodgers star Corey Seager hit a three-run home run to give Texas the lead. Seager hit his second three-run home run against the Dodgers, with whom he was a two-time All-Star, National League Rookie of the Year, World Series and National League Championship Series Most Valuable Player. Muncy’s second home run made it 3-2 for Texas in the fourth. Wyatt Langford homered off Dodgers starter Tyler Glasnow to make it 4-2 before Hyeseong Kim hit a sacrifice fly for the Dodgers. Pages’ home run had the Dodgers in control going to the ninth, but Diaz gave up a two-run home run to Evan Carter and a tying single to Ezequiel Duran with two outs. That set the stage for Muncy’s winner off Rangers reliever Jacob Latz (0-1). Prior to the game, the Dodgers held a moment of silence for the late Davey Lopes, who passed away earlier this week. Lopes was part of one of the most productive infields in major league history, the Dodgers’ second baseman for most of the 1970s and into the 80s. –Field Level Media #Deadspin #Max #Muncy #blasts #HRs #propel #Dodgers #Rangers

Just hours after the Artemis II crew splashed down from their historic journey around the moon, a few willow-wielders took guard at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Stadium as if they were determined to send some cricket balls back into the lunar orbit.

A mammoth 442 runs were plundered by the Punjab Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad batters, at the end of which PBKS triumphed by six wickets.

While Abhishek Sharma’s 28-ball 74 (5×4, 8×6) proved the launchpad for SRH’s 219 for six, Priyansh Arya (57, 20b, 5×4, 5×6), Prabhsimran Singh (51, 25b, 4×4, 4×6) and Shreyas Iyer (69 n.o., 33b, 5×4, 5×6) ensured PBKS remained unbeaten in IPL 2026.

SRH left-arm wrist-spinner Shivang Kumar bowled with gumption (three for 33) and priced out the PBKS top-order, but the damage had been done before he was introduced in the seventh over.

While Abhishek’s half-century came off 18 balls, Priyansh’s came two deliveries faster. It took the SRH openers 3.4 overs to breach the 50-run mark; their counterparts did it in 3.3.

The blistering start made the rest of the run chase a formality as skipper Shreyas took the side home with seven deliveries to spare.

Earlier, Arshdeep Singh’s 10-ball second over went for 24 runs, as Abhishek punished anything in his arc with elan.

Part-time bowler Shashank Singh proved to be the unlikely circuit-breaker after the 105-run PowerPlay.

The gentle medium-pacer repaid the faith shown by Shreyas by having Travis Head (38, 23b, 5×4, 1×6) and Abhishek caught in the deep.

After being 120 for no loss in eight overs, the SRH innings decelerated.

Arshdeep’s 14th over saw two contrasting fielding efforts. While Marcus Stoinis dropped Heinrich Klaasen at long-off, Marco Jansen ran to his right and plucked the ball out of thin air with his outstretched right hand to send back Ishan Kishan.

The nonchalance of the whole exercise saw Arshdeep cover his mouth and sit down in disbelief, though the crowd’s reaction was to stand up and applaud.

Later, Klaasen tossed his bat in the air out of frustration after his scratchy innings (39, 33b, 1×4, 1×6). Perhaps he knew that his knock would come back to haunt his team.

The PBKS willow-wielders made sure of it.
