Rangers Drop Astros, 6-5
The Houston Astros and Texas Rangers provided some drama for the home crowd.

Texas second baseman John Giesbrecht contributed to his team's 6-5 win over the Houston Astros. Giesbrecht, who finished 4th in the AL in OPS with 1.057 in 2045, went 2 for 4 with 1 run scored to lead the offensive attack for the Rangers. Texas reliever Mike Webb picked up the win, upping his record to 2-1. Paul Schwartz took the loss. Brad Kramer converted his 7th save in 13 tries.

Giesbrecht had a timely hit for Texas in the top of the seventh. With Houston trailing 5-4, he turned a full count changeup into a 2-run home run. It was his 16th home run of the season, making it 6-5, Texas.

"It wasn't our best performance," said Giesbrecht, "but a win in this league is nothing to sniff at."

The win elevated the Rangers to 51-42.
