Heaney (5-13) allowed four runs (three earned) on three hits and a walk while striking out eight over six-plus innings to earn the win over the Angels on Sunday.
Heaney yielded a three-run home run to Charles Leblanc in the fourth inning and allowed the first batter of the seventh to reach on an error. Jose Leclerc let that runner score, but the Rangers were able to hold their lead, allowing Heaney to secure his first win since July 21. The veteran southpaw is now at a 3.84 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 149:39 K:BB over 145.1 innings over 29 appearances (28 starts) this season. He's projected to make his next start at Seattle.
