The Texas Rangers completed a three-game sweep over the Tampa Bay Rays Wednesday with a 5-1 victory, despite losing All-Star outfielder Adolis Garcia and staring pitcher Jon Gray to early injuries.
The Rangers are now off to a 6-0 start following the All-Star break, sweeping the American League East-leading Rays for only the second time this season. The other sweep also came this month, from the Philadelphia Phillies.
Gray's injury came first. Interrupting was appeared to be a great start for the 31-year-old. Through 4 1/3 enticing innings, he didn't allow a single run and struck out four Rays on 63 pitches, Giving up eight hits, the Rangers were still leading 1-0 when he had to leave the mound in the fifth inning after he took a comebacker from Rays first baseman Yandy Diaz's bat to his lower left leg.
Rangers personnel rushed to his aid and remained with him on the field for a few minutes until he was able to leave the field and be replaced by Brock Burke. Jon Gray got hit with a comebacker again. He's standing by the mound right now with the team trainer, Bruce Bochy and Mike Maddux. Looks like he's gonna try a few warm-up pitches here.
