					| 7-5 Loss Extends Baltimore Losing Streak |  
					| The timely hitting of Sean Geisler helped the Texas Rangers down the Baltimore Orioles, 7-5. Geisler went 1-4 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 5 runs and scored once for the Rangers. The Orioles, at 52-90, have lost 8 straight games. 
 Making an impact for the home team was Blake Ballard. In the bottom of the fourth, the former first overall pick  had a run-scoring  sacrifice fly. That made the score 6-4, Rangers.
 
 Geisler said he was "thrilled" the fans had something to get excited about.
