Josh Jung and Justin Foscue each hit solo homers and the Texas Rangers snapped the Chicago Cubs' 10-game winning streak with a 6-0 victory on Saturday in Arlington, Texas.
Jung went 3-for-4 with two runs, Alejandro Osuna had two hits and two RBIs, and Joc Pederson added two hits and an RBI for Texas, which snapped a two-game skid by outhitting the Cubs 9-4.
Chicago had won 20 of its last 23 games before being shutout for the fourth time this season. The Cubs went 0-for-13 with runners in scoring position and left 11 on base.
Rangers starter Jack Leiter allowed three hits with a season-high five walks and six strikeouts over 4 2/3 innings.
Jalen Beeks (2-1) replaced him and threw the next 1 1/3 innings with no baserunners allowed. Cole Winn followed with a perfect seventh frame before Gavin Collyer pitched the final two innings.
Texas opened the scoring with two runs in the second inning. Jung snapped an 0-for-12 skid by depositing an 0-2 fastball from Edward Cabrera into the right-center field seats for his fifth homer of the season.
With runners on the corners and no outs, the Rangers added another run on Osuna's RBI single to left field.
The Rangers tacked on two more runs in the fourth when Pederson doubled in a run with one out before scoring on Osuna's single to right.
Cabrera (3-1) was victimized by the home run ball again in the fifth inning on Foscue's leadoff homer to left field. The 358-foot shot was Foscue's first career homer in his 23rd major league game.
Cabrera gave up five runs on seven hits with one walk and six strikeouts over five innings. He has allowed seven homers in his past four outings.
The Rangers added to their lead with two outs in the sixth on Kyle Higashioka's run-scoring single against Jacob Webb.
Chicago left fielder Ian Happ extended his on-base streak to a career-high 30 games with a first-inning walk.
