Victory Pushes Rangers Record to 77-68
It was a fun time at Arlington Stadium, where the Minnesota Twins and Texas Rangers tangled.

Texas Rangers starter Bob Ojeda was in a groove as he led his team to a win over the Minnesota Twins, 7-2. Ojeda picked up the win for Texas, going 6.1 innings. He gave up 2 runs on 3 hits. He now sports a record of 10-12.

Carlos Delgado brought the hometown crowd to its feet with two out in the bottom of the first. That's when the former first round draft pick belted a 2-run home run. With the round-tripper, the Rangers took the lead, 2-0.

"We did a lot of things right," said Delgado.

Texas is now 77-68.
