In a tight game between the Texas Rangers and the Toronto Blue Jays, pitcher Ricky Vanasco was terrific on the mound. The Texas right-hander helped his team to the 2-0 win. Vanasco, now 3-4, was the winner. In 5 innings, he gave up 2 hits, while striking out 5, walking 5, and allowing no runs. DeMarcus Evans earned the save for Texas, his 7th.

Nick Solak, who is tied for 10th in the AL in bases on balls with 28, chipped in for Texas with a solo home run in the bottom of the third. For the game, the second baseman had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 RBI.

Afterward, Rangers manager Baseball America was ebullient. "That was a fun game to coach," he told a group of reporters, adding, "I hope it was just as fun to watch."

Texas is now 19-23.
