Rangers Get Road Win, 7-3
The Texas Rangers downed the Minnesota Twins, 7-3, at Metrodome. The Rangers were led by Chipper Jones, who captured player of the game honors. He went 2 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Jason Bere got the win, improving to 5-15. He worked 7 innings, giving up 3 runs on 3 hits, while striking out 12 and walking 2. Billy Taylor earned his 7th save in 10 chances.

Texas used the timely hitting of Phil Plantier to seize the win. The designated hitter stroked a 2-run single in the top of the third inning to put the Rangers on top, 2-1. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"As well as we've been playing, I think we can play even better," said Texas manager Sean Norman.

The 5th-place Twins have lost 4 consecutive games.
