Goes yard Monday Jung went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Astros.

Jung had six multi-hit efforts over his last eight contests in August, so the slowdown in September is discouraging. He's at a .251/.294/.394 slash line with 14 homers, 57 RBI, 48 runs scored and four stolen bases over 120 games this season.

Rangers' Josh Jung, once benched and optioned, is now at center of Texas' resurgence It’s been an up-and-down 2025 for Jung, but he has hit his stride during the Rangers’ surprising playoff push.

Last Night in Baseball: Shohei Ohtani Rebounded and the Dodgers Swept the Reds

Extends hit streak to five Jung went 3-for-6 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Wednesday's 20-3 win over the Angels.

Impact Jung was about fifth on the list of offensive stars in the game, but the Rangers understand how important it is for the third baseman to get his groove back. A wrist injury that derailed him in 2024 has been followed by a season-long slump in 2025, when he was demoted to the minors for a stretch in July. Wednesday was his sixth straight start after getting a four-game breather last week to reset. The three-hit performance extended a hit streak to five games, during which Jung has gone 9-for-23 (.391) with a home run, a double and four RBI.
