The Texas Rangers bested the New York Yankees by a score of 7-4, with catcher Hector Villanueva getting the main credit.

Texas starter Fernando Valenzuela was credited with the win after throwing 125 pitches over 7 innings. His record now stands at 3-2. The Rangers are off to a tough start, getting just their 8th win in 22 games.

Villanueva came through with some timely hitting for Texas. With the score 4-4 in the top of the seventh and one down, Villanueva hit a 1-2 slider for a run-scoring single. His 14th hit of the season made it 5-4, Texas.

"It was a solid team effort," said Villanueva after the game.
