When the Texas Rangers signed Jacob deGrom three years ago, this is the pitcher they believed they were getting.

It was that Evan Carter, whose spent the first month of the season in the minors rather than in center field, hit his first homer of the season in the second inning. It left the bat at 111 mph. It’s the hardest ball he’s hit in the majors, including that magical 2023 playoff run.

Corey Seager had two solo home runs and an RBI double, Jacob deGrom struck out a season-high 10 in five-plus innings and the Texas Rangers beat Detroit 10-3 on Saturday night to end the Tigers' winning streak at five.
