Lester Rips HR Number 300
Texas defeated Oakland today 12-6 and took some of the joy out of Moe Lester's 300th career home run.

"I just wanted to get a good swing on the ball all day," Lester said. "And I did."

Despite the loss, it was a good game for the 35-year-old Athletics left fielder. He had 1 hit, scored 2 runs and had 3 runs batted in.

The Rangers manager said, "You could see he was aggressive up there. The worst thing we did was throw him a strike. It probably would have been better if we threw the ball outside of the strike zone every time he came to the plate because he seemed like he was in a hurry to get it over with."

Lester has a lifetime .282 average and .374 on-base percentage in his career with 1417 hits, 239 doubles, 110 triples, 300 home runs, 906 RBIs and 986 runs scored.
