Manny Machado hits a 3-run homer in 10th and has 5 RBIs as Padres beat Rangers 6-4

On Saturday, June 20, San Diego Padres star Manny Machado hit a tie-breaking, three-run home run in the 10th inning, lifting the Padres to a 6-4 victory over the Texas Rangers in Arlington.
Texas Rangers manager Skip Schumaker rearranged the pitching rotation after scratching Nathan Eovaldi due to left knee soreness, forcing reliance on depth option Joe Ross in high-leverage situations.
Machado drove a 2-0 sinker into the left-field seats for his 13th home run of the season, matching his season high with 5 RBIs despite entering Saturday batting.178, worst among 155 qualifying hitters.
"We've come to expect Manny to do that every single time that he comes to the plate," Padres manager Craig Stammen said, underscoring the team's reliance on the veteran's pedigree to stabilize the lineup.
The Padres split the series after losing the Friday opener 9-7 to the Rangers before falling 4-3 on Sunday, continuing their road trip with a starting rotation ranked near the bottom of the league in ERA.
