TORONTO (AP) — Wyatt Langford hit a three–run home run, Jake Burger and Joc Pederson also went deep, and the Texas Rangers beat the Toronto Blue Jays 6-5 on Thursday night.
Pederson went 2 for 3 with two walks and scored twice as Texas bounced back after losing the previous two.
Toronto's Kazuma Okamoto cut the deficit to one with a two-run homer off Jacob Latz in the ninth, his 18th.
Latz recovered by retiring Alejandro Kirk on a grounder and striking out pinch hitter Brandon Valenzuela for his 15th save in 17 chances.
Rangers shortstop Corey Seager went 0 for 2 and walked twice after being activated off the concussion list. The two-time World Series MVP missed 12 games.
