Late Rally by Rangers Locks Up 5-4 Win
The Texas Rangers overcame a good performance by Oakland third baseman Ryan Zimmerman to knock off Oakland, 5-4, at McAfee Coliseum. Zimmerman went 2 for 4 with a home run. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Brad Penny, who is tied for 7th in the AL in innings pitched with 48.1, was the winner. He's now 2-2. The loser was Randy Wells. Orlando Parra finished the game for Texas and earned his 1st save.

The outcome might have been different for Texas, had it not been for Julio Borbon, the 22-year old left fielder . Borbon stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put Texas up, 5-4. For the game, he was 2 for 3, including 1 double and 1 single.

Borbon said afterward that he was glad to contribute to the win.

With the loss, Oakland sinks to 19-14.
