Texas Rangers pitcher Jacob deGrom exited Thursday night's game against the Los Angeles Angels after two innings because of right triceps fatigue. This outing marked a significant point in deGrom's season, as he allowed six hits and two runs before being relieved by Peyton Gray. DeGrom, who has been managing a left hip and glute injury since the All-Star break, has struggled against the Angels this year, allowing 10 earned runs over 10 innings across three starts.
