Athletics Lose to Rangers, 4-2
|
Both teams had their opportunities, but in the end, the Texas Rangers got the win.
The Texas Rangers got a strong performance from pitcher Jon Lester, who stymied the Oakland offense en route to a 4-2 win at Oakland Coliseum. Lester, now 17-4, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 7, walking 2, and allowing 2 earned runs.
The Rangers got a big at-bat from first baseman Max Muncy. For the game, Muncy went 1-4 with a triple, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. In the top of the sixth, with the bases loaded, he stroked a bases-clearing triple. His 2nd triple of the season gave Texas a 3-0 lead.
Lester said afterward that his team has grown over the course of the season, adding: "It feels good when a plan comes together."
The Rangers have an impressive 94-60 record.
