Verlander Too Much for Red Sox in 5-1 Texas Win
The Texas Rangers picked up a win at The Ballpark in Arlington 1994-2011, knocking off the Boston Red Sox, 5-1. On the mound for Texas was right-hander Justin Verlander, who played a pivotal role in the win. Sean Doolittle was credited with the save, his 22nd in 24 tries. The win gives Texas a season record of 87-36.

Verlander, who dominated for Texas, earned the victory to move to 18-7. He was in control the whole game, scattering 5 hits over 8 innings, while striking out 10. Boston batters could never bunch up enough hits to produce a rally.

"Enjoyed this one," Verlander told the Texas Citizen. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
