Rangers Take Tight Tangle
Texas beat Oakland at Oakland Coliseum, escaping with a 5-4 win. The win in large part was due to left fielder Jose Guillen. He was 2-3 with a home run and a walk. Texas reliever Jason Beitey got the win, raising his record to 2-0. James Curtis was tagged with the loss. Liam Hendriks was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 2 of 3 save opportunities.

Henry Vargas, who finished 4th in the AL in slugging percentage with .537 last year, helped out the Texas cause in the top of the seventh inning with a run-scoring single. For the game, the designated hitter was 2-5 with 2 singles.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Guillen said.

Texas sits in 4th place in the AL West Division at 48-53.
