					| Waltersson Excels in 7-3 California Win |  
					| The timely hitting of Bjoern Waltersson helped the California Angels down the Texas Rangers, 7-3. Waltersson went 2-2 with a home run, a double,  and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored once for the Angels. Bryan Banana earned save number 7 this season. The American League West Division-leading Angels have a record of 66-50. 
 With California leading 3-2 in the bottom of the fifth, Waltersson hit a changeup from Kevin Ovens-Toots for a bases-clearing  double. It was his 17th double of the season and put the Angels ahead, 6-2.
 
 "We cashed in when we had the chance," said California manager Dakota  Wise.
