Athletics, Schilling Deal Rangers 3-1 Setback
Starting pitcher Curt Schilling held up his part of the bargain, helping the Oakland Athletics stymie the Texas Rangers, 3-1. The save was credited to Hector Vizcaino, his 26th. The win makes Oakland 87-50.

Schilling, a native of Anchorage, Alaska, was dealing all game. He kept Texas hitters off-balance, while giving the Athletics 8 quality innings. Schilling threw 115 pitches, allowing 5 hits and striking out 9.

"I just tried to attack the bottom of the zone," Schilling said.
