Giesbrecht Hits 2 home runs in Rangers Win
The Texas Rangers trumped the Minnesota Twins, 7-3, at Target Field. Texas shortstop John Giesbrecht was terrific. He slugged 2 home runs. He scored 3 times and drove in 3. The loss puts Minnesota at 8-17.

Texas used the timely hitting of Rich Stinson to seize the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Rangers on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Nice to tuck this win away," said Stinson.
