At O.co Coliseum, the Oakland faithful were treated to an intriguing pitcher's
duel.  Matt Garza(1-1) finally bested his Oakland counterpart, Sonny
Gray(0-1), by the score of 2 to 0.
 
Oakland found themselves trailing quickly as the Texas bats came through in
the first inning when they tallied 2 runs on 4 hits.  That early run support
was all that Garza required.  Neither team managed to score after the 1st
inning.  
 
Garza got help from Joe Nathan who was credited with his 10th save.  Gray
absorbed the loss.  He pitched 6 and 2/3 innings giving up 8 hits and 1 walk.

It was a great finish at Rangers Ballpark as the Texas Rangers pulled off a
dramatic comeback beating the Minnesota Twins by the count of 3 to 2.
 
Texas came through with the game-winning runs in the bottom of the 9th inning
plating 2 runs on 2 base hits.  After an out was recorded, A.J. Pierzynski
keyed the rally when he hit a single.  Alex Rios came next and he cleared the
fences for a two-run home run making Texas the winners and sending the 44,014
fans home happy.  Texas banged out 8 hits on the afternoon.  
 
Neal Cotts(2-0) went 2 innings allowing no runs for the victory. Glen
Perkins(1-1) ended up with the loss in relief.  Chris Centorcelli was
ebullient after the game, 'It's great to win a hard fought game like that.
Our guys just weren't going to be denied.  And did you see the fans - they
were going wild! Yes sir, a very enjoyable win this afternoon!'

The Texas Rangers registered 4 runs in the 1st inning and nipped the Oakland
A's 8 to 7 at O.co Coliseum in a hard fought contest.
 
The deciding run was scored by Texas in the 9th.  Ian Kinsler stroked a
single, and an error was also committed.  Two outs later Ryan Cook came to
bat and threw a wild pitch scoring the run.  Although they lost, Oakland did
out-hit Texas 11 to 7.  
 
The victory went to Jason Frasor(1-1) who went 3 innings, allowing no runs.
Joe Nathan was credited with his 8th save.  Brett Anderson(0-1) was the loser
in relief.  It was a tough loss for him as he did not allow an earned run in
his 3 and 2/3 innings of work.

Designated hitter Geovany Soto smacked 2 homeruns and had 4 RBI and Yu Darvish
dominated striking out 10 New York (AL) batters at Rangers Ballpark as the
Texas Rangers beat the New York (AL) Yankees by the count of 7 to 1.
 
Soto provided much of the offense.  He belted a three-run homer in the 1st
inning and delivered a solo blast in the 6th inning.  Texas had a total of 9
hits for the game.  
 
Darvish(5-0) picked up the complete game victory, allowing 1 run. Phil
Hughes(0-2) was the losing pitcher.  He served up 4 homeruns in his 5 and 1/3
innings.  
 
When asked about his strikeout total for the game, Darvish offered, 'The fan's
really got into it.  It is fun to see them tally up the strikeout totals up
there in the stands.  Fortunately, I kept them busy this afternoon - of
course, it would be all for naught without the 'W'.'

Hiroki Kuroda(5-1) got the win allowing 2 runs in 5 and 1/3 innings. The loss
was charged to Ervin Santana(6-1).  'I was a little good, a little bad and a
little ugly.' said Kuroda, 'I was just giving us a chance to win.'

First baseman Chris Davis slammed a homerun and had 3 RBI as the Baltimore
Orioles came back to win one over Kansas City Royals, 8 to 7.
 
Baltimore had the winning rally in the 9th inning with 3 runs on 2 base hits.
Adam Jones led off and keyed the rally when he ripped a base-knock, and an
error was also committed.  Nate McLouth stepped into the batter's box and he
drew a walk.  Brian Roberts was next to the plate, but was promptly struck
out.  Davis followed next and he belted a three-run homer.  The score went
back-and-forth with the lead changing 6 times.  
 
The victory went to Jim Johnson(2-1) who went 1 and 1/3 innings, allowing no
runs. Greg Holland(0-1) took the loss in relief.  Craig Lombardi was all
smiles after the game, 'To pull a game out in your last at bats, is a
beautiful feeling - and did you see how quiet it got out there? You could
have heard a pin drop when we took the lead.  But, hey, that's what makes
baseball so great - as the great sage Yogi Berra says, 'it's not over 'til
its over.'

Emilio Bonifacio had 4 hits and 4 RBI as the Kansas City Royals crushed the
Baltimore Orioles 13 to 3.
 
Bonifacio provided much of the offense.  He bombed a two-run dinger in the 2nd
inning, doubled scoring a run in the 3rd inning, delivered a base-hit in the
6th inning and doubled in the 9th inning.  For the game Kansas City out-hit
Baltimore 17 to 11.  
 
Bruce Chen(2-1) got the win allowing 2 runs in 7 innings. Chris Tillman(3-3)
absorbed the loss.  He allowed 8 hits and 3 walks in 3 innings.  
 
'I was really seeing the ball today,' Bonifacio said 'I wish it was always
this easy.'
