The Texas Rangers only had five hits against the Kansas City Royals but they made sure that two of them were home runs as they went onto beat the Royals 2-1. Ian Kinsler and Ramon Vazquez both hit solo home runs of Royals starting pitcher Zack Greinke to lead the Rangers to the victory.
Sidney Ponson picked up the win which was his first of the season. Ponson tossed eight innings and only allowed six hits and one run. Don’t ask me how Ponson pitched so well, I didn’t even expect to see him make a start for the Rangers this year!
C.J. Wilson pitched the ninth inning to pick up his sixth save of the season.
