Cristo Avilés was sizzling at the plate. In a game played at Globe Life Park in Arlington, the Pittsburgh catcher blistered the Texas Rangers for 5 hits in 5 at-bats to pace his club to a good 13-7 victory.

"Avilés was too tough to get out," Rangers skipper Eric Wedge said in his postgame interview. "No matter what we threw him, he hit it. And he hit some good pitches, too."

Cristo Avilés hit a two-run home run off Derrek McGriff in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off Daniel Gomez in the 6th, singled in the 7th and singled in the 9th.
