Astros Suffer 7-4 Setback
Led by Pedro Medrano, the Texas Rangers downed the Houston Astros, 7-4. Medrano was 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once for the Rangers. The winner was Ezra Varney, who threw 108 pitches over 6 innings. The right-hander was charged with 2 runs on 7 hits. The Rangers have now won 4 straight.

Medrano contributed a big hit, a grand slam home run, for Texas in the top of the third. With his team trailing 1-0, Medrano took a fastball from Julius Mueller and stroked the home run to right. His 4th home run of the season allowed the Rangers to leap in front, 4-1.

"We'll savor this win," Medrano told the Texas Daily, "then get ready for the next game."
