The Toronto Blue Jays got a superb performance from pitcher Michael Fulmer. Still, it wasn't enough to beat Texas. The Rangers won the game, 3-2. In spite of the loss, Fulmer was named the player of the game. He threw 7 innings of 3-hit ball. Texas reliever Andrew Chafin was the winner. His record is now 3-1. The losing pitcher was Shelby Miller. Ryan Burr got the save, his 2nd in 3 chances.

Texas took a 3-2 lead on Bryce Harper's 37th home run of the season. The solo home run came off Toronto pitcher Shelby Miller in the top of the eighth.

"We made a couple of mistakes," said Toronto skipper Ryan Hicks, "and it cost us."

Toronto's current losing streak has reached 8 games.
