Jones, hitting in the cleanup spot, hit homers in his first three at-bats to help the Texas Rangers beat the Los Angeles Angels by a final score of 8-1. He hit a two-run homer in the first inning and then solo homers in the third and fifth.

Last season, Jones hit .158 with three homers and 14 RBIs in 209 at-bats. This season, Jones is hitting .250 with 14 homers and 35 RBIs in 160 at-bats.

Since entering the Major League Baseball as a 19-year-old phenom with the Atlanta Braves, Jones has seen the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. This season, he appears to have saved his career.

With the win, the Rangers improved their record to 47-36 and into first place in the AL West. The Angels, 46-37, dropped into second place.
