The Texas Rangers scored four runs but the Oakland Athletics scored eight runs after 11.
Mike Foltynewicz came into today’s game as the only starter in the league averaging over two dongs allowed per nine innings and today he allowed three solo home runs to Oakland.
Folty’s 24 dingers allowed leads the league and if he could have kept it to 23, perhaps things could have turned out differently today as the Rangers took an early 2-0 lead with their own two solo home runs off of A’s starter James Kaprielian via the bats of Adolis Garcia and Joey Gallo.
