Astros Fall, 10-5, to McDonnell, Rangers
The Texas Rangers beat the Houston Astros, 10-5, at Globe Life Park in Arlington. Curt McDonnell, in particular, was impressive. He went 2-3 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 3 times and driving in 3. The Rangers are now 63-60, while the Astros fall to 51-72.

A key moment came with one out in the bottom of the third. That's when McDonnell hit a splitter from Max Horton for a run-scoring single, putting Texas up, 2-1.

McDonnell offered a curt "no comment" when asked to discuss the win after the game.
