Rangers Deal Athletics 5-2 Loss
Texas Rangers starter Jason Vargas pitched his team past the Oakland Athletics, 5-2. Texas is off to a hot start at 9-1.

Texas used a well-timed hit by Jose Reyes to capture the win. The shortstop socked a 2-run double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Rangers ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 6 at-bats, it was important.

"Jason was pounding the zone," said Texas manager Rangers GM.
