 The Rangers won the last two games of a three-game set against the Blue Jays, scoring 18 runs in those two wins after being shut out, 1-0, in the first game. They are averaging 8.88 runs in their 16 wins this season compared to 2.94 in their 16 losses -- that's the largest difference (5.94) in MLB.

 After losing eight consecutive games, Pittsburgh has won four of its last five. The Pirates are averaging 5.0 runs and hitting .263 with runners in scoring position in their last five games after averaging 2.3 runs and hitting .190 with RISP in their previous eight games.

 The Pirates are 21-6 in interleague play since last season, best in MLB, and have played five straight interleague games, winning four of them. Texas has a 5.31 ERA in interleague games since last season, third highest in MLB.

 Elvis Andrus recorded his 1600th career hit on Sunday, becoming the fourth player in Rangers history with at least 1600 hits. Only Michael Young (2230), Pudge Rodriguez (1747) and Rafael Palmeiro (1692) have more hits in a Rangers uniform.

 Josh Bell is on a six-game hitting streak, recording an extra-base hit in five of those games. Since April 21, he is batting .269 with a .692 slugging percentage -- that .423 isolated power (slugging minus average) is the fifth highest in the National League (minimum 50 plate appearances).

 Joey Gallo has recorded a true outcome (walk, home run, strikeout) in all but one game this season (his five RBI game on April 21). Of his 126 plate appearances this season, 61.1 percent have ended in a true outcome, highest in MLB among qualifiers.
