Kessel, Rangers Sink Angels Again in Game 2
Riding the 4-hit performance of left fielder Adam Kessel, the Surprise (TEX) Rangers got a road win against the Tempe Angels, 12-2, in Game 2 of the Championship today. Kessel went 4-5 with a home run, a double, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 4 times and driving in 2 for the Rangers, who now lead the best-of-7 series, 2 games to 0.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Jason Moore? The Surprise (TEX) first baseman had a 2-run double in the top of the third inning to put the Rangers on top, 4-0. For the game, Moore had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"The name of the game is scoring runs," Kessel said. "We did a good job of that today."
