Rangers Rally But Giants Walk It Off In Extra Innings

Patrick Bailey ripped a two-run, walk-off home run to the left-field corner to lift the San Francisco Giants over the Texas Rangers 3-2 in 10 innings Sunday afternoon at Oracle Park.

The Rangers rallied with a run in the ninth to force extra innings and then took the lead in the 10th before Bailey's two-out game-winner on a 1-1 pitch against closer Will Smith.

"I saw a pitch that got away from him, I'm sure he didn't want to put it there," Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said. "Hard-fought game, good comeback by our guys."

The (70-48) remained 2 1/2 games ahead of the Houston Astros, who lost to the Los Angeles Angels, atop the AL West.

Ezequiel Duran scored a go-ahead run on a balk in the top of the 10th inning.

The Rangers trailed 1-0 and down to their final out when J.P. Martinez doubled in the ninth. Martinez scored from second base on Ezequiel Duran's infield single to the hole between shortstop and third base.

That tied the score at 1-1.

Aroldis Chapman struck out the side in the bottom of the ninth to send it to the 10th.

Duran started the 10th on second base for the Rangers and moved to third on Josh Smith's bloop single to shallow center field. With Marcus Semien at the plate, Giants' right-hander Camilo Doval was called for the balk.
