Blake Ballard made an impact in the 7-3 Texas win over Minnesota. Ballard, who is a three-time Great Glove Award winner, belted 3 home runs. He drove in 6 runs and scored three times. Kelly Goosecock got credit for the win, improving to 15-6. He allowed 3 runs on 8 hits in 7 innings. Minnesota's current losing streak has reached 4 games.

With Texas leading 4-2 in the bottom of the fourth, Ballard hit a fastball from John McRight for a 3-run home run. It was his 3rd home run of the season and put the Rangers ahead, 7-2.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Ballard. "And not try to do too much."
