Eric Thames led Texas to a win over Los Angeles. The final score was 11-6. The right fielder collected 2 extra-base hits, including 1 home run and 1 double. Alex Wood was the winning pitcher. Over 5 innings, he allowed 4 runs on 7 hits, with no walks and 4 strikeouts. Texas goes to 80-53. The win puts them 4½ games up in their division.

Andrelton Simmons had a big 2-run double for the Rangers in the bottom of the fifth inning. With Texas trailing 2-1 and runners on 1st and 3rd, he got a fastball from Chris Archer and stroked the double to right-center. It was his 31st double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Rangers ahead, 3-2.

"The boys were really swinging the bats today," winning manager Eric Ferraro said.
