Rangers Suffer 6-4 Loss to Cubs
The Chicago (Rk+) Cubs picked up a win at Black Diamonds Ballpark, topping the Texas (Rk+) Rangers, 6-4. On the mound for Chicago (Rk+) was right-hander Ken Ames. He played a principal role in the triumph. Maximiano Carrasco earned his 3rd save, after closing out the game. The loss makes Texas (Rk+) 7-6.

The Rangers had been locked in a 2-2 tie with the Cubs going into the top of the fifth inning. That changed quickly when the 20-year old shortstop Steve Ridler came to the plate. Ridler hit a 2-run triple on a first pitch fastball from Texas (Rk+) hurler David Guerrero. It was Ridler's 2nd triple of the year.

"I was able to change speeds effectively tonight," said Ames.
