Texas played host to Minnesota at the friendly confines of Arlington Stadium.

Phil Leftwich, credited with the win, is now 4-7. He allowed 6 runs on 10 hits in 6.1 innings. Jeff Calhoun converted his 10th save in 13 tries.

Brian McRae, who finished 2nd in the FL in triples with 9 last year, contributed to the Texas win with a 2-run home run in the bottom of the fifth. For the game, the left fielder had 2 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 RBI.

"We got the victory," said Plantier. "That's all that matters at the end of the day."

The Rangers now have a record of 22-37 with the win over Minnesota.
