Continues mashing
Jung went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double, two RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 6-3 win over Kansas City.
Analiz
Jung doubled and scored in the first inning and then plated two runners with a bases-loaded single in the fourth. He's had an impressive homestand, hitting safely in all six games, while going 10-for-24 with four extra-base hits (two HRs), four RBI and six runs scored. Jung was moved to second in the batting order for the three-game set against the Royals and got five plate appearances in each contest.

Goes yard in three-hit day
Jung went 3-for-5 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Saturday's 7-6 win over the Royals.
Analiz
The third baseman took Seth Lugo deep in the first inning, and his last hit of the afternoon came as part of Texas' three-run rally in the ninth inning to walk it off. It was Jung's seventh homer of the season and second in the last three games, and over 25 games in May he's batting .307 (31-for-101) with six RBI and 15 runs scored.

Snaps homer drought
Jung went 2-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Thursday's 5-1 loss to Houston.
Analiz
Jung had half of the Rangers' four hits and snapped a homerless streak of 14 games with his second-inning blast. While he's sustained a batting average north of .300 since a mid-April resurgence, Jung's run production has taken a dip in May. He's slugged just .396 on the month with two home runs and five RBI over 23 games.

Returns to action
Jung went 1-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in Tuesday's 10-7 win over the Astros.
Analiz
Jung was back in the lineup and the middle of the order after missing two games due to a sore left shoulder. The third baseman opened the season in the lower third of the order following a disappointing 2025, but a resurgence that began in late April has moved him to the upper half and often to the Rangers' cleanup spot. Jung is slashing .303/.360/.459 over 49 games.

Checking back into starting nine
Jung (shoulder) will start at third base and bat cleanup in Tuesday's game against the Astros.
Analiz
After getting the last two games off to recover from the sore left shoulder that knocked him out of Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Angels, Jung made enough progress in his recovery to reclaim his usual spot in the starting nine Tuesday. After a disappointing 2025 campaign, Jung has posted a career-best .819 OPS over 199 plate appearances to begin the current season.

Held out again Monday
Jung (shoulder) remains out of the lineup for Monday's contest against the Astros.
Analiz
Jung had to be removed from Saturday's game against the Angels because of left shoulder soreness and has now missed two straight starts. Per Kennedi Landry of MLB.com, an MRI on Jung's shoulder came back negative. He could return to the lineup as soon as Tuesday, though it's not a given. Ezequiel Duran will grab another start at third base in Jung's stead.
