Hank Blalock was a major factor in the 6-5 Texas win over Anaheim. The Rangers third baseman went 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 times. B.J. Ryan got the save, the 22nd for him this season. The 20th-place Rangers are 57-69.

Texas used the hitting of Todd Hollandsworth to pick up the win. The center fielder clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Rangers on top, 6-4. For the game, Hollandsworth had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"I felt good up there," said Hollandsworth. "I saw the ball well."
