Rangers Earn Clutch Win, 8-7
The Texas Rangers besoiled an otherwise fine performance by Chicago catcher A.J. Pierzynski by beating the White Sox, 8-7, at Ameriquest Field in Arlington. Pierzynski was 4-5 with 2 doubles and 2 singles, while scoring 3. Reliever Jason Monti picked up the win. His record improves to 1-0. Fernando Abad took the loss. Texas is now 34-46, while Chicago is 43-37.

The defining moment came in the bottom of the ninth for Texas. That's when Ian Desmond hit a solo home run off 24-year old left-handed pitcher Fernando Abad to win the game. The home crowd went wild.

"That was a good game -- all the way through," said Desmond.
