Hernandez goes 4-for-6, Rangers Move to 65-34
The Texas Rangers defeated the Houston Astros, 12-4. Earning player of the game honors was second baseman Cesar Hernandez, who was 4-6 with 4 singles, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 3. The Rangers have an impressive 65-34 record.

It could have been a different outcome for Texas, had it not been for Andrelton Simmons, the four-time Great Glove Award winner . Simmons contributed a run-scoring walk in the top of the ninth inning to put Texas up, 5-4.

"The name of the game is scoring runs," Simmons said. "We did a good job of that today."
