Rangers Top Minnesota, 8-7
In a tight contest at Target Field, the Texas Rangers edged the Minnesota Twins by the score of 8-7. Texas second baseman John Giesbrecht, who blasted 1 home run, was a key contributor. The Twins drop to 5-5 and continue their mediocre start to the 2048 season.

Texas used the clutch hitting of Ray Llewellyn to snag the win. The catcher drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Rangers ahead, 8-7. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a crucial one.

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