    All-Star slugger Adolis García tied the Texas Rangers' single-season rookie record with his 30th homer, and Jordan Lyles threw seven scoreless innings for the last-place team.

    As for Zack Greinke and the AL West-leading Houston Astros, the 37-year-old right-hander was a bit rusty and went deeper than even he expected in his return after testing positive for COVID-19 last month.

    García hit one of three long balls off Greinke, with Nathaniel Lowe and DJ Peters also hitting homers more than 420 feet, as the Rangers won 8-1 on Tuesday night.
