Rangers Rally to Eke Out Win
The Texas Rangers topped the Toronto Blue Jays by the score of 6-5, with the largest share of the credit going to right fielder Bryce Harper. Harper went 2 for 4 with a home run and was hit by a pitch, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once for the Rangers. The Rangers, now 8-2, have had a terrific start to the season.

Harper had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the 11th. On a full count sinker from JC Ramirez, he banged a 2-run home run to right, giving the Rangers a 6-5 lead. It was the 1st home run of the year for Harper.

Harper told a Texas Today reporter that he was "satisfied" with the win.
