Rangers Take Down Astros, 7-6
The Texas Rangers downed the Houston Astros, 7-6. The hitting star was second baseman John Giesbrecht. Giesbrecht went 3-3 with a double, 2 singles, and a walk for the Rangers. Texas reliever Kyle Curve was the winner. His record is now 2-0. The losing pitcher was Bill Dillard. The Rangers have an impressive 56-31 record.

The game was at a stalemate until left fielder Bert Clark came to bat in the top of the ninth. Facing Houston pitcher Bill Dillard, he hit a first pitch splitter for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Texas on top, 7-6.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Giesbrecht said.
