Jurado (5-4) took the loss Wednesday as the Rangers were downed 6-2 by the Angels, surrendering six runs on seven hits and a walk over six innings while striking out seven.
The young right-hander kept most of the Angels' lineup in check and posted a season high in strikeouts, but he unfortunately couldn't solve Mike Trout, who took Jurado deep twice. He'll carry a 4.38 ERA and 48:16 K:BB through 63.2 innings into the All-Star break.
