The Texas Rangers secured a 2-0 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday night, thanks to a powerful home run from Adolis García and a strong pitching performance from Cody Bradford.
García’s home run came in the top of the fourth inning, giving the Rangers an early lead that they would hold onto for the rest of the game. The 28-year-old outfielder has been a standout player for the Rangers this season, with 25 home runs and 67 RBIs.
But it wasn’t just García’s offensive contribution that led the Rangers to victory. Pitcher Cody Bradford put on an impressive performance, allowing only three hits and striking out six batters in six innings. The 25-year-old rookie has been a reliable starter for the Rangers, with a 3.38 ERA in his last five starts.
The Blue Jays, on the other hand, struggled to get their offense going against the Rangers’ strong pitching. They were held to just three hits and were unable to capitalize on any scoring opportunities.
This win marks the Rangers’ third consecutive victory, bringing their record to 44-67 for the season. The Blue Jays, who currently hold a wild card spot in the American League, now have a record of 60-50.
The two teams will face off again on Wednesday night, with the Rangers looking to extend their winning streak and the Blue Jays hoping to bounce back from this loss.
