The Texas Rangers scored three runs but the Toronto Blue Jays scored four runs.
The first taste of victory for the 2022 was once again yoinked away by a potent Blue Jays squad.
Dane Dunning made his first start of the season and he looked a lot like 2021 Dane Dunning. Last season, Dunning gave first inning runs in 11 of his 25 starts with 22 of his 61 total runs allowed coming in the fatal first frames.
Today, Toronto led 2-0 by the time the first inning concluded. It wasn’t all on Dunning — some sloppy defense from Andy Ibanez contributed to the first inning woes — but it is a trend that Texas has to hope gets cleared up this year.
