ARLINGTON, Texas — Jon Gray pitched four-hit ball into the seventh inning and the Texas Rangers got two-run homers from Marcus Semien and Adolis García to beat the Cleveland Guardians 4-0, stopping a five-game losing streak. Gray allowed only one runner beyond first base while throwing 94 pitches in 6 1/3 innings and lowering his ERA to 2.08. He's limited opponents to seven earned runs in 48 1/3 innings over eight starts and one cameo relief appearance since giving up five runs in 3 2/3 innings during his season debut. The defending World Series champion Rangers have never been under .500 since Bruce Bochy became their manager before last season. This was their seventh victory this year while at .500.
