Rangers Drop Royals, 2-1
Darius Shaheed, who finished 4th in the NL in strikeouts with 230 in 2106, was locked in. The right-hander led the Texas Rangers to a 2-1 win against the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium. Josh Payne earned save number 19. Texas raised its record to 49-41 with the win.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Justin Kerby? The Texas second baseman had a run-scoring double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Rangers on top, 2-0. For the game, Kerby had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"I thought Darius threw the ball well across the board," said Texas manager Stephen Gesualdi.
