Rangers Upend Dodgers, 11-7
The Texas Rangers withstood an impressive performance by Los Angeles catcher Miguel Montero to defeat the Dodgers, 11-7, at Dodger Stadium. Montero went 1 for 1 with a home run and 2 walks, while scoring 2. Texas, at 71-41, is 4 games up in the AL West Division.

Texas used the timely hitting of Chris Barnwell to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Rangers on top, 7-6. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We got the victory," said Barnwell. "That's all that matters at the end of the day."
