The performance of Bo Jackson proved critical in helping Texas beat Minnesota, 10-3. The Rangers left fielder went 3 for 4 with 2 home runs and a double. He drove in 6 runs and scored twice. The Twins, now 94-58, have lost 4 in a row.

Jackson had a key at-bat for Texas early in the game. With the bases loaded, he hit a 2-run double. It was his 1st double of the season and gave Texas an early 2-0 lead.

"We did more than enough to get the win," said Jackson.
