Marcus Semien's five RBIs lead Texas Rangers to a 15-8 victory over Oakland Athletics, with a 10-run second inning explosion.

In a stunning display of offensive firepower, Marcus Semien led the Texas Rangers to a resounding 15-8 victory over the Oakland Athletics on Tuesday afternoon. Semien kicked off the game with a bang, launching a homer and finishing the day with an impressive 4-for-5 performance, driving in five runs in the process. Joining Semien in the offensive onslaught were Jonah Heim, who also notched four hits, and Leody Taveras, who added three more hits to the Rangers' season-best total of 19 hits.

The Rangers wasted no time in asserting their dominance, scoring a whopping 10 runs in the second inning alone. Semien, who had already hit a home run in the first inning, continued his hot streak by delivering a key single to push the lead to 3-0. He then delivered a crushing blow with a two-run double, extending the lead to 11-0. The Rangers' explosive second inning was fueled by nine hits and one error, leaving the Athletics reeling.

On the mound, Jose Urena benefited from the offensive outburst, earning his first win as a Ranger in his first start of the season. Urena tossed five solid innings, allowing just two runs (one earned) on four hits while striking out two and walking two. The Rangers' lineup provided ample run support, with Semien, Heim, and Taveras each crossing the plate three times and contributing to a total of 15 runs scored.

Despite a late rally by the Athletics, highlighted by homers from Kyle McCann and Seth Brown, the Rangers held on for their fourth consecutive win. McCann finished with a pair of hits and three runs scored, while Max Schuemann and Abraham Toro also made contributions in the losing effort.

Overall, the Rangers' explosive offensive performance and solid pitching from Urena propelled them to a convincing victory over the Athletics. With key contributions from Semien, Heim, and Taveras, the Rangers showcased their offensive prowess and demonstrated their ability to compete at a high level. As they look to continue their winning streak, the Rangers will rely on their potent lineup and strong pitching to carry them to further success in the season ahead.
