ARLINGTON -- Nothing has really gone right for the Rangers in the mindset of this seven-game losing streak. And as they tried to halt it from being eight, they were hit with another blow.

Outfielder Wyatt Langford left Tuesday’s series-opening matchup against the Twins with left side tightness in the fifth inning. He was 0-for-2 at the time of his departure.

Langford missed games on Sept. 19-20 against the Marlins due to left side tightness, but returned to the lineup for the series finale on Sept. 21, when he launched his team-leading 22nd homer of the season.

The 23-year-old has been the best hitter in the Rangers’ lineup since shortstop Corey Seager was sidelined with appendicitis on Aug. 29. Langford’s batting .241 with a .775 OPS across 134 games this season.
