ARLINGTON, Texas — Hunter Renfroe picked a good time to show signs of snapping out of his slump.
Renfroe hit an opposite-field two-run homer in the sixth inning to give the Angels the lead on their way to a 7-3 victory over the Texas Rangers on Tuesday night, their second straight come-from-behind victory in two games to start this four-game series against the AL West-leading Rangers.
Renfroe had been in a 10-for-62 slump over the previous month – a slide that prompted him to be moved as low as No. 7 in the lineup – before lofting one just over the right field fence to give the Angels a lead.
