Dylan Bundy had been there before — six days earlier, in fact. After 15 up he had sent 15 down in a pitching duel against the Colorado Rockies’ Jon Gray.
In the midst of his best start as a big-leaguer, Bundy left two changeups high in the strike zone, and Nick Hundley and David Dahl hit them out for solo home runs.
This time, Bundy found himself in almost the same situation. An Ian Desmond walk was the only base runner the Texas Rangers managed in the first five innings, and Desmond was caught stealing at second on a strikeout pitch.
