Drew Stars as Rangers Top Braves, 10-4
Texas right fielder J.D. Drew made his presence felt in the 10-4 Rangers triumph over the Atlanta Braves. Drew went 2 for 3 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks. He scored 3 runs and drove in 2. The 13th-place Rangers improved to 83-77.

Texas used a well-timed hit by Marlon Byrd to capture the win. The center fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Rangers ahead, 4-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"We take it day by day here," said Byrd, "and today was a good one for us."
