13,217 fans watched an exciting game at Minute Maid Park.  The Texas Rangers
topped the Houston Astros by the slimmest of margins, 3 to 2.
 
The score was knotted at 2 after nine innings.  Finally, Texas pulled the game
out in the 15th inning.  After an out was recorded, Josh Hamilton lofted a
solo-blast 'downtown'.  After another out, Nelson Cruz dug into the batters
box next, but he struck out.  The game was a scoreless duel until the 6th
inning.  
 
The win was credited to Alexi Ogando(2-4) who went 2 and 1/3 innings allowing
no runs. Wilton Lopez(1-2) was the loser in relief.  He allowed just 1 hit
and no walks in 3 innings.
