Rangers activate World Series closer Josh Sborz and put Dane Dunning on IL

Associated Press  

ARLINGTON, Texas — Texas Rangers reliever Josh Sborz, who got the final seven outs in the team’s World Series-clinching game last fall, was activated from the injured list Friday after missing nearly two months because of a right rotator cuff strain. The Rangers brought Sborz back from his second IL stint this season at the same time that right-hander Dane Dunning went on the 15-day IL for the second time with right shoulder soreness. “He’s a big part of this club, been a high-leverage guy,” manager Bruce Bochy said before the series opener against Tampa Bay. He made three relief appearances since being moved to the bullpen from the rotation after the return of three-time Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer last month.
