Valencia (hamstring) hit a game-tying two-run single in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Rangers.
Despite being scratched from the starting lineup with hamstring tightness, Valencia was able to come through in a pinch-hit capacity. His seventh-inning single plated Guillermo Heredia and Jarrod Dyson, knotting the score at 3-3. What has been a miserable season at the plate is starting to progressively turn around for Valencia, who's now hit safely in six straight while raising his average 46 points to .227 and knocking in eight runs over that span.
