Rangers Rally to Win
The Texas Rangers electrified the home crowd with a walk-off win.

Texas beat Toronto at The Ballpark in Arlington, escaping with a 7-6 win in 12 innings. The win in large part was due to third baseman Hank Blalock. He was 2 for 5 with a home run and a walk. He scored 3 runs. Texas, now 5-8, is off to a slow start.

The Rangers got a clutch hit from shortstop Abraham Nunez. In the bottom of the 12th, he delivered a run-scoring single to win the game for the Rangers.

"Exciting game to play in," said Nunez. "Getting the win makes it even better."
