TORONTO (AP) - Nelson Cruz and Ian Kinsler each hit two-run homers and the Texas Rangers again roughed up Toronto ace Roy Halladay, beating the Blue Jays 5-4 on Tuesday night.
The Rangers won on the road for the first time in four tries and have won back-to-back games after losing seven of their previous eight.
The game was delayed for 10 minutes in the top of the sixth when home plate umpire Kerwin Danley was hit on the head by a broken bat and had to leave the field on a stretcher.
Halladay (3-1) gave up five runs and eight hits in eight innings, walking none and striking out nine. Five of the eight hits he surrendered were for extra bases.
In 20 career games against Texas, Halladay is 7-7 with a 5.36 ERA
