Gray didn't factor into the decision in Friday's 10-8 loss to the Blue Jays, giving up three runs on three hits and two walks over four innings. He struck out four.
It looked like Gray might cruise to a win in his Rangers debut after Texas grabbed a 7-0 lead in the top of the fourth inning, but the Toronto offense started rolling in the bottom of the frame and the right-hander got the hook after 70 pitches (43 strikes). The final score likely seemed awfully familiar to Gray from his days with the Rockies, but things should be a little less chaotic when he makes his home debut Thursday against the Angels.
