Rangers 5, Blue Jays 1: Where did the offence go?

Things worth mentioning…

• Marcus Stroman had issues with his command all night, going 4.2 IP and giving up 5 ER on 6 hits. Texas jumped on him in the 5th inning, scoring 4 runs on 4 hits.
• Following the tragedy in Humboldt, Saskatchewan, both teams honoured the team with a moment of silence and Stroman had a special message etched on his cap tonight.

• As for the Jays offence, it wasn’t the same team as last night, taking them until the 5th inning to get on base with a Kevin Pillar triple, that would eventually be stranded. The Blue Jays managed a total of 2 hits the entire game, which was no match for Texas’ 8.
• The Jays’ bullpen was solid tonight, allowing only 2 hits in 3.1 innings of work, with both hits coming off Danny Barnes, who would leave both runners on base. It was a much better showing than last night, after allowing 4 runs on 4 hits.
