Bass Hits 3 Dingers, Rangers Win, 8-3
The Texas (AZL) Rangers beat the Kansas City (AZL) Royals, 8-3, at Surprise Stadium. The win was due in part to third baseman Joe Bass, who hit 3 home runs. Picking up the win was Rodrigo Martínez. He went 6 innings, allowing 3 runs on 6 hits. The left--hander struck out 6 and walked 2. Sean Thompson earned the save for Texas (AZL), his 3rd of the year.

Texas (AZL) relied on the hitting of Joel Brown to pick up the win. The left fielder ripped a run-scoring triple in the top of the fourth inning to put the Rangers on top, 4-2. For the game, Brown had 1 triple and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Anything I can do to help the team win," said Brown.

The win lifted the Texas (AZL) record to 38-18.
