Kansas City Roughed Up By Rangers
The Texas Rangers polished off the Kansas City Royals by the score of 9-2. The largest share of the credit belonged to shortstop Dave Quintero. Quintero hit 2 home runs, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 3 for the Rangers. Shigeki Noguchi earned the win to go to 17-6. He allowed 1 run on 4 hits, with 5 walks and 5 strikeouts in 5.1 innings of work. The Rangers now own a record of 74-59.

Early in the game, Quintero had a 2-run home run for Texas. It was his 12th home run of the season and put the Rangers on top, 2-0.

"Getting a lot of baserunners and getting some timely hits, it's a good combination," said Quintero.
