15-16 - Toronto all bark as Texas bites Blue Jays 8-5

A night after going almost a game and a half without scoring a single run, the Rangers scored eight runs in tonight’s game to pick up the win in front of their most good fans:

Player of the Game: In his first appearance in May, with the closer title lifted, Jose Leclerc came in to pitch in the top for the seventh and hurled a 1-2-3 inning with two strikeouts throwing all but four pitches for a strike.

Getting Leclerc right will be a huge storyline for the rest of the season but maybe all it took was alleviating him of the cursed ninth inning in Arlington.
