ARLINGTON, Texas—Hunter Renfroe’s two-run homer capped a three-run sixth inning and the surging Los Angeles Angels beat the AL West-leading Texas Rangers 7–3 on Tuesday night, June 13.
Renfroe’s homer helped spoil the major league debut of Owen White (0–1), who was recalled from Double-A Frisco. White entered with one out in the fifth inning and gave up three runs on four hits with two strikeouts and one walk.
The Angels have won three consecutive games and eight of their last nine. At 38–31, they are seven games over .500 for the first time since May 27, 2022, and are within 4½ games of Texas.
“We’re starting to heat up. Once we get going, it’s going to be hard to stop us,” said Renfroe, who hit his 12th homer of the season but only his second since May 10. “We’re looking to win 15 games a month. That’s going to put us where we want to be.”…
