Texas Beats Oakland, 3-2
Texas right-hander Dick Bosman pitched his team to victory over the Oakland Athletics at O.co Coliseum. The final score was 3-2. Picking up the save was Jeff Russell. He's now 27 for 35 in save chances. Texas, now 61-90, holds down last place in the American League Western Division.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Mark Teixeira? The Texas first baseman had a run-scoring single in the top of the fifth inning to put the Rangers on top, 3-1. For the game, Teixeira had 1 double and 1 single in 3 at-bats.

Afterward, Rangers manager was ebullient. "That was a fun game to coach," he told a group of reporters, adding, "I hope it was just as fun to watch."
