Former Brewers first baseman who delivered the tying eighth-inning double off Edwin Diaz, sparking the Rangers’ late rally that paved the way for their ninth-inning lead and Milwaukee’s clinch.

Tellez has seen limited September at-bats; García’s imminent return could push him into a platoon or bench role, depending on Garcia’s health and Texas’ lineup needs. His left-handed power remains a potential late-season spark.

Rowdy Tellez previously surfaced as a released asset in the Mariners thread; his name appears as part of the broader depth-building narrative around Texas’ strategy for late-season continuity.

Rowdy Tellez joined Texas mid-July after leaving Seattle, returning to the NL-leaning power profile with a Rangers lineup that should lean on his left-handed pop. He previously made his name in Milwaukee, including a memorable clutch moment for the Brewers; now he clashes with Milwaukee this week as a Ranger facing his former club.

Tellez’s early deep shot on the night provides context for Texas’ power output in a game surrounding Gurriel’s injury, highlighting the offense’s capacity to produce despite Diamondbacks’ setback.
