Rougned Odor's right cross

HO. LY. SHIT.

I was just saying on Twitter, before the big brawl between these two teams, that we need more of this in October. Nearly every game between the Rangers and Blue Jays this season has been intense and entertaining. And, moments later...

This is the last time these two teams will play this season, unless they meet in October. We need this to happen, Baseball Gods.

Player(s) of the Game: Rougned Odor cemented his legend as a Ranger favorite forever by landing a punch to Jose Bautista's jaw. Matt Bush and Ian Desmond get the PotG for collecting their first big league win and hitting the go-ahead three-run blast in the 7th inning respectively.

Up Next: Some Rangers who aren't suspended for being involved in a baseball riot will play the Oakland A's in Oakland. The Rangers open up their first series against Oakland with Derek Holland on the mound against LHP Sean Manaea. First pitch from Oakland is scheduled for 9:10 pm CT.
