ARLINGTON -- Byron Buxton is not slowing down.

Buxton added more highlights to his career year on Thursday, hitting a pair of home runs in a 4-0 win against the Rangers at Globe Life Field. He opened the game with a leadoff homer, then added a three-run shot for insurance in the eighth inning. Both big flies went to nearly the same spot behind the center-field fence.

They were the 33rd and 34th homers of the year for Buxton, extending what was already a career high. With four RBIs, he extended his career high total to 82, and with 96 runs scored on the season, has an outside shot at reaching the century mark for the first time in his career.

That backed six outstanding innings from Bailey Ober , who struck out five and walked one in his first scoreless outing of the season.
