Rangers Hope Win Turns Around Slow Start
The Texas Rangers defeated the Minnesota Twins, 6-4, in Federal League action at Metrodome, with Texas pitcher Jimmy Key named player of the game. Key went 6 innings to notch the win. He scattered 6 hits, walked 3, and struck out 5. His record improves to 1-2. John Butcher recorded the save for Texas, his 1st of the season.

The Rangers beat the Twins with some clutch hitting. The home run by Rob Deer in the top of the first is a good example. With two down, Deer gave his team the lead, 2-0, when he came through with the big hit.

"Nice to see our side come away with the win," Deer said after the game.

The Rangers, now 4-9, have not found much traction so far in 1994.
