6/15/25 | Texas Rangers follow familiar route in giving Josh Jung a chance to get back in sync. Texas Rangers third baseman Josh Jung was given a “mental day” and did not play Sunday's series finale vs. the Chicago White Sox at Globe Life Field.

6/07/25 | Texas Rangers Select Another San Antonio Star in Latest MLB Mock Draft. In the 2019 MLB draft, the Texas Rangers selected Texas Tech third baseman Josh Jung. But he also has San Antonio roots. Jung went to MacArthur High School in San Antonio before he started his collegiate career with the Red Raiders. His younger brother, Detroit Tigers infielder Jace Jung, followed in his brother's footsteps. Jung has worked out for the Rangers. He's overcome several injuries to become an everyday player for Texas and was part of the 2023 World Series run as a rookie. This season, as the Texas offense remains struck in neutral, Jung has been one of the few consistently productive players.

5/27/25 | Put in an early pitching pinch, Texas Rangers bullpen answers bell to beat Blue Jays. The Texas Rangers, by way of their own flaws and failures, have lost a few games that they'd certainly classify as winnable opportunities in recent weeks. “A lot of games this year,” third baseman Josh Jung interrupted for the sake of accuracy, “actually.” OK, fair, the Rangers have lost a lot of games that they could've won this year because their bottom-five offense has not matched their top-five pitching. It's a hapless and hopeless cycle that the Rangers have found themselves stuck in. Source: https://www.dallasnews.com/sports/rangers/2025/05/... |

Between them, Jung said, the family would spend every weekend of every month there. Source: https://www.dallasnews.com/sports/rangers/2025/05/... |

4/28/25 | Patience? Discipline? Texas Rangers running out of ideas as offensive futility continues. The Texas Rangers' hitters filed one-by-one into a room adjacent to the Globe Life Field home clubhouse Monday afternoon for a longer-than-usual pregame offensive meeting. Be the smartest Rangers fan. “I think we want to be a team that just values getting to first base,” third baseman Josh Jung said.

4/18/25 | See what Rangers' Josh Jung said about the strange game-ending double play vs. the Dodgers. Right now, the Rangers can't even hit foul balls correctly. Instead of a foul ball and the tying run still at the plate, the game ended on a double-play when the batter, Josh Jung, stopped running. After fouling off a pair of 2-2 95 mph fastballs from reliever Tanner Scott, Jung hit a hard bouncer down the third-base line that appeared to bounce in foul territory, but kicked back towards the base. Third base umpire Nick Mahrley started to jump back to avoid the ball and his hands went up, but he signaled fair ball as Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy grabbed it.

4/08/25 | Texas Rangers activate Josh Jung from IL, reinforce bullpen; what it means moving forward. As expected the Texas Rangers activated Josh Jung from the injured list on Tuesday, but it wasn't as clean as just that. After Nathan Eovaldi went only 4 2/3 innings on Monday and Gerson Garabito had to pitch the remainder of the game, the Rangers found themselves short when it came to length in the bullpen. Josh Jung (neck spasms) was activated from the IL: It was perhaps a bit surprising that the Rangers optioned Ezequiel Duran to Triple-A Round Rock and instead kept Jonathan Ornelas as a backup infielder.
