Rangers Spill Astros, 6-2
The Texas Rangers got a stellar performance from pitcher Jerry Hartman, who handcuffed the Houston offense en route to a win, 6-2, at Minute Maid Park. Hartman went 8 innings to notch the win. He scattered 6 hits, walked 1, and struck out 6. His record improves to 7-8. Texas occupies last place in the American League Western Division at 47-73.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Jesús Gómez? The Texas designated hitter had a run-scoring double in the top of the first inning to put the Rangers on top, 1-0. For the game, Gómez had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

Gómez called the win the result of "everyone being in sync."
