					| Rangers Take Down Twins, 4-3 |  
					| Both teams had their chances, but the Texas Rangers eventually prevailed. 
 Minnesota wasted an exceptional performance by pitcher Ted Mosley, falling to the Texas Rangers, 4-3. Mosley threw 7.0 innings of 5-hit ball for the losing team. Mike Webb recorded the save, making him 19 for 21.
 
 Had Josh Ferguson not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Ferguson hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 4-3, in favor of the Rangers.
 
 "Winning the game is always the first objective," Ferguson said.
 
 Texas is third in the American League West Division with a record of 45-53.
