Rangers Down Royals, 6-4
The Texas Rangers beat the Kansas City Royals, 6-4, at Kauffman Stadium. The win was due in part to designated hitter David Casas, who was 3-4 with a home run, a triple, and a walk, while scoring 2 runs. Texas, with the win, is 6-1.

Texas used the clutch hitting of Jun Tsuda to capture the win. The catcher drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the tenth inning to put the Rangers ahead, 6-4. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a big one.

In postgame comments, Tsuda said he was glad to contribute to an exciting win.
