Win Makes Texas 23-12 | The Texas Rangers picked up a win at Wrigley Field, knocking off the Seattle Cubs, 5-2. Starting pitcher Bert Inks was a big reason why. Roy Witherup collected save number 11. The Rangers, at 23-12, lead by one game in their division.
One of the biggest contributors for Texas was shortstop Al Dark. In the top of the eighth, with the bases loaded, Dark got a 0-2 fastball and hit a 2-run single. That put the Rangers on top, 5-1.
Inks said his team "executed a good game plan." | | | | |
