Rangers Win Squeaker, 3-2, Over Athletics
Texas turned a good effort from starter Keegan Thompson into a win over the Oakland Athletics at Globe Life Field. The Rangers won the game, 3-2. Thompson got the win, improving to 1-1. He gave up 5 hits and walked 1 over 8 innings. He allowed 2 runs. The Rangers have stumbled out of the gate, getting only their 3rd win in 13 games.

Matt Vierling drew 1 walk in 4 trips to the plate for Texas. The 27-year old left fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With one out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he broke a 2-2 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Andrew Misiaszek. It was his 5th RBI of the season.

"Nice to get this one," said Vierling. "Wins have been hard to come by."
