Geisler Slugs Rangers to 11-5 Win
The Texas Rangers topped the California Angels, 11-5, the lion's share of the credit going to designated hitter Sean Geisler. On the day, Geisler was 4 for 4 with 2 home runs, a double, and a walk. He scored 4 times and drove in 2 for the Rangers. Texas pitcher Pimbly Nimblebottom got the win. He's now 11-6. Gus Morante was tagged with the loss. The first-place Rangers, at 72-43, now lead their division by 10 games.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for John Giesbrecht? The Texas second baseman had a run-scoring double in the top of the first inning to put the Rangers on top, 1-0. For the game, Giesbrecht had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Geisler said.
