I suppose the only reasonable explanation for the Rangers playing their best game of the year to date is that they’re inclined to perform well in near-freezing temps with dogs on hand to watch.
These Rangers are very specific.
It was 40 degrees at first pitch for Bark at the Park night in Arlington and the Rangers gave the home town pups something to howl about as Texas scored the first five runs of the game and coasted to a 5-1 victory.
The offense outpaced the Jays for five runs on eight hits and they reasonably could have scored more if not for a couple of spectacular plays in the field early in the game that kept a few runs off the ledger of Toronto starter Marcus Stroman.
