The Texas Rangers picked up a win at Royals Stadium, knocking off the Kansas City Royals, 6-1. On the mound for Texas was left-hander Kenny Rogers, who played a pivotal role in the win. Their 51-61 record puts the Rangers 4th in the Federal League Central Division.

It could have been a different outcome for Texas, had it not been for Jorge Posada, the top prospect . Posada contributed a 2-run double in the top of the fifth inning to put Texas up, 4-1.

"This level of focus will win us a lot of ballgames," Posada said after the game.
