Esparza Goes Deep Twice in 5-0 Rangers Win
Due in large part to right fielder José Esparza, the Texas (DSL) Rangers sunk the New York A 2 (DSL) Yankees 2, 5-0. Esparza belted 2 home runs. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. Jim Fletcher picked up the win, improving his season record to 2-0. He struck out 4 in 6.1 innings. Danny Land earned the save for Texas (DSL), his 1st of the year.

With Texas (DSL) leading 1-0 in the bottom of the second, Esparza hit a curveball from Ernesto Martínez for a 2-run home run. It was his 3rd home run of the season and put the Rangers ahead, 3-0.

"We take it day by day here," said Esparza, "and today was a good one for us."

The loss lowers the New York A 2 (DSL) record to 3-9.
