Rangers Take Tight Tilt, 9-8
The Texas (Rk+) Rangers overcame a pretty good performance by Grand Junction catcher Angelo Ortega, beating the Rockies, 9-8, at Black Diamonds Ballpark. Ortega belted 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice. The Rangers improved to a lofty 18-7.

Oscar Quintero was the walk-off hero for Texas (Rk+). With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Rangers left fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"The ending was a real humdinger," Quintero told reporters after the game.
