Jurickson Profar returned to Globe Life Park on Friday as a visiting player for the first time, as the Oakland A’s opened a three-game series against the Texas Rangers.
He did so as one of the A’s hottest hitters, though not as sizzling as Rangers killer Khris Davis. Profar, though, entered with six hits in his past 15 at-bats, two home runs and eight RBIs.
