Holding On: Rangers 4 Royals 3

  • Hitting in the 3-hole, David Murphy had three singles, a run scored and an excellent running catch. Josh Hamilton got the day off to rest his aching knee for the stretch.
  • Mitch Moreland homered in the sixth for the second game in a row, and it turned out to be the winning run.
  • Nelson Cruz delivered with a two-out, two-run single in the first inning.
  • Andres Blanco and Julio Borbon, the eight and nine hitters, each had two hits. Blanco will return to a utility role Friday when Ian Kinsler returns from the disabled list.
  • The Rangers won and the A's lost to increase the division lead to 9.5 games.
