The best of Tuesday night's Yankees vs. Rangers game in images

On Tuesday, Ben Rice provided the opening act to a one-sided game between the New York Yankees and Texas Rangers, with the young slugger going deep off lefty Patrick Corbin in the second inning. The Yankees bats added another run in the fourth inning, one in the sixth and two in the eighth—off an Aaron Judge blast, his 16th—to open the lead to 5-0.

Oswald Peraza had the play of the night in the sixth inning, though, the Yankees third baseman making an incredible catch in foul territory while navigating the always-entertaining and often dreaded "Tarp Monster."

Meanwhile, the Rangers hitters couldn't grab any momentum off Yankees starter Will Warren, who pitched a solid 5 and 2/3 innings with 10 strikeouts. A Jonah Heim 2-run blast in the ninth inning did break up the shutout.

The final score: Yankees 5, Rangers 2.
