Rangers Get Extra-Inning, 3-2 Win
The Texas Rangers snuck past the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, 3-2, in 11 innings. Texas pitcher Justin Verlander, in particular, had a standout performance. Texas has an impressive 39-9 record.

The decisive blow was delivered by Jason Heyward in the bottom of the 11th when he hit a run-scoring double off 30-year old right-handed pitcher Chris Volstad to win the game for Texas. The home crowd went nuts.

"I was a little disappointed," said Tampa Bay manager . "We could've and should've scored more runs."
