Rangers Snatch Late Win
The Texas Rangers defeated the Seattle Mariners by the score of 5-4, with the biggest share of the credit going to catcher Ivan Rodriguez. Rodriguez went 3-4 with a double and 2 singles, while adding 3 RBI for the Rangers on the day. Texas reliever Jeff Russell picked up the win, upping his record to 1-8. Jeff Nelson absorbed the loss. Today's win puts Texas at 53-78, while Seattle falls to 67-64.

Texas got a knockout punch from Newt Joseph. The pinch hitter hammered a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"It's nice to deliver when your team's counting on you," said Rodriguez.
