The Texas Rangers picked up a huge win over the New York Yankees on Monday night by the score of 2-1. The Rangers got a great performance by their pitching straff as they held the powerful Yankees offense to only two runs and four hits.
Scott Feldman pitched 5 2/3 innings to pick up the victory and improve to 2-3 on the season. Feldman gave up four hits and one run, three walks, three strike outs, and gave up one home run. Pretty quality start for Feldman.
The hightlight of the night however was the Rangers bullpen. Three relief pitchers combined to throw 3 1/3 innings and not allow a hit or run. Frank Francisco, Jamey Wright, and C.J. Wilson all pitched wonderfully. Wilson notched his 18th save of the season in the game as well.
Josh Hamilton and Chris Davis supplied both rbi’s for the Rangers. Hamilton had a rbi single in the third inning and Davis had a rbi double in the fourth inning for the Rangers. Not the best night at the plate, but it was good enough to beat the Yankees.
