Joey Gallo's return to the heart of the lineup made an uncomfortably cold ballgame warm and familiar

ARLINGTON -- The Rangers on Saturday tried to make Joey Gallo comfortable.

Short of handing him a hot chocolate and building him a nice fire, they did everything they could. Namely, they moved him back to the middle of the order on an otherwise frigid night. It did wonders for him, probably more than the black balaclavas he and all the other Rangers for the third coldest game in Globe Life Park history. It was degrees 42 at game time, with a wind chill of 35. It's hard to get comfortable in that.

Mike Minor made it even rougher on Toronto with an assortment of 94 mph fastballs and a good changeup.
