Rangers Earn 5-4 Win Versus Astros
Texas picked up a win at Minute Maid Park, toppling the Houston Astros, 5-4. Pitcher Pimbly Nimblebottom was one of the reasons the Rangers triumphed. The winner was Texas reliever Riichi Yamashita, now 1-2. The loser was Bill Dillard. With the win, Texas pushed its record to 76-71.

Texas used the timely hitting of Alejandro Soriano to capture the win. The pinch hitter socked a solo home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Rangers ahead, 5-4. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a big one.

"Honestly, I'm not frustrated," said Houston manager Dave DaSilva. "The effort was great."
