The Texas Rangers scored eight runs while the Detroit Tigers scored three runs.
The difference between tonight and some other games of the last few weeks is the Rangers finally got those timely hits that had eluded them as Texas turned a late 2-0 deficit in the 6th into a 3-2 lead that would eventually end at 8-3 thanks mostly to a couple of rare-of-late sustained rallies.
Those all important hits that scored the tying and go ahead runs came with two-outs and off the bats of Josh Jung and Leody Taveras who had been given the majority of the night off as two of the players most worn down by the recent slump.
