Travis Jankowski - On base three times Jankowski went 1-for-2 with two walks and a stolen base in Thursday's 5-3 loss to Philadelphia.
Impact Jankowski, who made his first start in five games, used his speed and was in position to score a game-tying run in the seventh, but a strike-three call went against the Rangers and squelched a potential rally. It was the seventh steal of the season for Jankowski, who had emerged as a regular in left field prior to an early-May hamstring injury. His playing time has since been squeezed due to the improvement of other hitters, like Ezequiel Duran, Josh Smith and Robbie Grossman.

Marcus Semien - Tossed after strikeout Semien went 0-for-3 and was ejected from Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Angels.
Impact Semien appeared to check his swing on a 3-2 pitch that the first base umpire ruled a swinging strike three. The second baseman was not pleased and was tossed in between innings, as was manager Bruce Bochy and pitching coach Mike Maddux. That explains to those viewing the box score why Ezequiel Duran finished out the game at second base.

Jon Gray - Aiming to start Sunday The Rangers are hopeful that Gray (blister) will be able to start on Sunday against the Blue Jays, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Impact Gray had to be scratched from his last scheduled start because of a blister on his pitching hand, but the issue has been deemed minor and the team remains optimistic he'll be able to avoid a stint on the injured list. The right-hander boasts a 2.32 ERA on the season and struck out 12 in a complete game his last time out.
