Games Notes

Rangers bats break out again for a 15-9 win over the Angels.

While Ryan Dempster's Texas debut goes bust, the Rangers' bats bust out a night after a late rally stops a skid. This time Texas rallies from an 8-7 deficit with 8 runs in the 6th thru 8th innings.

Josh Hamilton drives in 4 runs while Ian Kinsler collects 3 hits, including a HR to lead off the game. Hamilton, Elvis Andrus, Michael Young, Geovany Soto, David Murphy and Mitch Moreland each have 2 hits. Mike Olt makes his MLB debut with a single in his 1st at-bat.
