Teixeira went 3-for-5 with a home run and two runs scored in Monday's loss to the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Teixeira has now homered twice in his last eight at-bats after hitting just three in his first 170 of the season. The veteran first baseman was having a rough go of it before a knee injury sidelined him for most of June. Teixeira hit .295 after the All-Star break a season ago, which could forecast a better second half for the first baseman.
