Angels 13, Rangers 7
- Nick Martinez was one of the big stories of the early part of the season for the Rangers, putting up a bunch of quality starts and sporting a gaudy ERA heading into June. Martinez has faded as the season has gone on, however, and the Rangers optioned him before the All Star Break to manage his innings and give him the opportunity to get some limited work in in the minors to provide a break. Martinez was pounded in his first start back last time out, however, and struggled again today. Martinez ended up going 5 IP plus one batter, and that one batter ended up scoring when Anthony Bass and Spencer Patton let things get out of hand in the 6th inning.
