Rangers SS Kerby goes 4-for-5 in Win
The Texas Rangers defeated the Los Angeles Angels, 7-5, in part because of second baseman Justin Kerby. Kerby went 4 for 5 with a home run and 3 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for the Rangers. Texas is 4th in the American League West Division with a record of 75-86.

Texas used the hitting of Scott Pabian to pick up the win. The third baseman clubbed a 2-run single in the top of the sixth inning to put the Rangers on top, 7-4. For the game, Pabian had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"We just try to have good at-bats, whether we're winning, losing, or tied," said Kerby.
