Cy Young hopeful Blake Snell entered tonight’s game searching for his 20th win on the season. To reach that milestone, the offense made sure to do their part in giving Snell enough run support to work through Texas’ lineup with ease. 15 hits by the Rays later, Blake Snell became only the second Rays pitcher to reach the prestigious 20 win mark.
Starters started well
Taking the mound for the Texas Rangers tonight was veteran righty Yovanni Gallardo. Ji-Man Choi welcomed Gallardo with a two-out base hit, but he would be stranded at first with an inning-ending strikeout.
