Rangers Drop Indians, 7-4
The Texas Rangers bested the Cleveland Indians by a score of 7-4, with designated hitter Shin-Soo Choo getting the main credit. On the day, Choo was 3 for 5 with 3 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for the Rangers. Jose Leclerc picked up the save for Texas, his 6th of the year. The Rangers raised their record to 13-22.

Texas used a well-timed hit by Robinson Chirinos to capture the win. The catcher socked a 2-run double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Rangers ahead, 6-2. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"We were able to get some things going offensively," said Choo.
