The Texas Rangers defeated the Houston Astros, 7-5. Third Baseman Tony Silva deserved a large share of the credit. Silva went 4-5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Rangers. The first-place Rangers, at 64-61, now lead their division by 3 games.

Early in the game, Silva had a run-scoring double for Texas. It was his 31st double of the season and put the Rangers on top, 1-0.

"I put some good swings on the ball," said Silva.
