Rangers Roll to 8-3 Win Over Pirates
The Texas Rangers topped the Pittsburgh Pirates, 8-3, in American League action at Globe Life Field. The standout performance belonged to Texas pitcher and Bizen, Japan, native Yoshinobu Yamamoto. Yamamoto, now 10-13, was the winner. In 5.1 innings, he gave up 3 hits, while striking out 10, walking 1, and allowing 2 runs. Texas, with the win, is 42-84.

Jarren Duran had a big 2-run double for the Rangers in the bottom of the sixth inning. With Texas leading 4-2 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from 27-year old right-handed pitcher Michael Grove and swatted a double to center. It was his 36th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Rangers ahead, 6-2.

"It never gets old," said Yamamoto. "Winning, that is."
