The homer was Jung’s first since May 16. He was hitting .291/.326/.507 at the conclusion of that game, but he’d come in at just .189/.250/.221 in 32 games since. Statcast thinks he’s been rather unlucky, but his exit velocity numbers aren’t nearly as good now as in his impressive rookie campaign two years ago. He needs to step it up in the second half to ensure that he remains the Rangers’ third baseman for 2026 and beyond.

Freeman is now hitting .312/.360/.494 in 67 games at Triple-A with 10 home runs and six steals. He has cut his strikeout rate in half this season by not focusing so much on pulling the ball and making better swing decisions. He has an impressive 89 percent contact rate and a minuscule 5.1 percent swinging strike rate. The former fourth-round pick may be a better option than Justin Foscue to fill in at the hot corner with Jake Burger (oblique) on the IL.

Colton Cowser had the single. It was a hard grounder that first baseman Josh Smith might have had a diving stab at, but he instead opted to head to first in the hopes that Marcus Semien would be able to corral it. Semien, though, never had a shot. The Rangers were probably fine with that outcome, as they weren’t going to want deGrom to throw 110-120 pitches chasing the no-no. He wound up needing 89 to get 21 outs, finishing with seven strikeouts and two walks. It’s his fifth scoreless start this season, and he moved to 8-2 with a 2.08 ERA. He’ll take on the Orioles again next week.

Vientos has missed the majority of June with his hamstring strain, but the 25-year-old is ready to roll after completing his rehab assignment. He should hit near the middle of the Mets’ lineup. It’s likely Ronny Mauricio will be optioned back to Syracuse to make room for Vientos on the active roster.

Ramírez was plunked in the fourth inning by Kevin Gausman and he wasn’t able to continue. The good news is that the third baseman has already undergone imaging, and X-rays returned negative. Consider Ramírez day-to-day, but there’s a good chance he’s back in the lineup this weekend.

This came shortly after Vladimir Guerrero Jr. left the contest after he was hit in the arm, and it did appear this was in retaliation. The 32-year-old will likely undergo testing, and an official update on the star infielder’s status should be available before the end of Thursday’s game.
