In a close game the Texas Rangers got by the Tampa Bay ballclub by the score
of 8 to 6.
Texas wasted no time and took the lead in the first inning as they creamed
Tampa Bay blasting them with 7 runs on 6 hits. That scoring would be all
that was needed. Tampa Bay had 12 hits in the game while Texas had 9, but
Texas had the more timely hits.
The victory was credited to Matt Harrison(1-1) who went 6 innings, allowing 4
runs. Frank Francisco was credited with his 3rd save. Scott Kazmir(1-2) was
the loser.
'I always am most impressed when a pitcher finds a way to win even without his
best stuff,' Chris Centorcelli said after the game. 'Harrison did not have
command of his pitches most of the afternoon, but he proved he really knew
how to pitch!'
