Athletics Collect 5-2 Win Versus Texas
The Oakland Athletics tallied a win at The Ballpark in Arlington 1994-2011, throttling the Texas Rangers, 5-2. Starting pitcher Jake Peavy was a big reason for his team's success. Peavy, now 2-6, was the winner. In 8 innings, he gave up 10 hits, while striking out 7, walking 0, and allowing 2 runs. The win puts the Athletics at 22-29, while the Rangers drop to 35-16.

Oakland used the timely hitting of Logan Morrison to capture the win. The designated hitter socked a 3-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Athletics ahead, 4-0. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"We had a good game plan," Peavy said, "and we were able to execute it."
