Big Day by Simms Sparks Rangers Win
The Texas Rangers stopped the Minnesota Twins, 17-4, at Arlington Stadium. The Rangers got a big game from Mike Simms, who went 1 for 2 with a home run and 3 walks, while scoring 3 times and driving in 5. Pete J. Smith got the win, improving to 1-5. He worked 9 innings, giving up 4 runs on 6 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 4. Even with the win, the Rangers have a dismal 9-29 record.

Milt Cuyler gave Texas a good at-bat in the bottom of the second inning. With the bases loaded, he grounded out, driving in 1 run to help send Texas to the win.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Cuyler told the Texas Daily News. "It's as simple as that."
