Rangers Rally to Tally 6-4 Win
The Texas Rangers topped the Minnesota Twins, 6-4, in AL action at Rangers Ballpark In Arlington. The game was highlighted by the performance of Texas designated hitter Adrian Gonzalez. The winner was Jesse Carlson in relief. His record improves to 3-1. T J Beam took the loss. Texas goes to 60-37. The win puts them 6½ games up in their division.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With two out, Gonzalez hit a fastball from T J Beam for a 2-run home run. The Rangers, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"This place sure got loud," said Bobby Liford, the Texas manager.
