Though the conditions were not ideal, the Texas Rangers and Baltimore Orioles came back from a rain delay to finish their game.

The Texas Rangers picked up a win at The Ballpark in Arlington, topping the Baltimore Orioles, 7-3. On the mound for Texas was left-hander Dallas Braden. He played a principal role in the triumph. Texas, at 63-85, occupies 25th place in the Virtual Baseball League.

First Baseman Carlos Pena made an impact for Texas, when he swatted a 2-run double off Tim Stauffer in the bottom of the third. For the contest, Pena went 1 for 5 with a double. He drove in 2 runs.

"I think it speaks for itself, I think we came out and we played our kind of baseball," said Pena.
