Texas Rangers closer C.J. Wilson blew another game as he was charged with two runs in the top of the ninth inning that tyed the game at 4-4.  However, thanks to a Michael Young rbi single that scored Ian Kinsler, the Rangers were able to come back and beat the Braves 5-4.

I’m not sure what is up with Wilson and I really hope that it is just a slump that will last these past two games.  Jamey Wright actually gave up the tying run in the ninth inning on a sacrafice fly but the run was still charged to Wilson.  Wright was charged with the blown save but picked up the win to improve his record to 4-2 on the season.

Scott Feldman actually pitched a pretty game as he pitched the first seven innings of the game and only gave up five hits and two runs.  Feldman left the came and Eddie Guardado came in and pitched a scoreless eighth inning just as he was supposed to.  Feldman and Guardado did their jobs that is for sure, Wilson and Wright however did not.

Brandon Boggs hit his third home run of the season which was a three run home run in the sixth inning to lead the Rangers with three rbi.  Young had the other two runs batted in for the Rangers.

Good series win for the Rangers as they took two out of three games against the Braves.  They will now play the Washington Nationals this weekend.  The Rangers should win two out of three game in that series I think.
