Diamondbacks Earn 3-2 Win Versus Rangers
Fans watched the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Texas Rangers fight to the finish.

The Texas Rangers got a sterling performance from pitcher Kevin Ovens-Toots, but the Arizona Diamondbacks still prevailed, 3-2. Ovens-Toots threw 7.0 innings of shutout ball. The win puts Arizona at 96-51 this season.

Arizona used the clutch hitting of Alec Thorpe to capture the win. The pinch hitter drilled a 3-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Diamondbacks ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a big one.

Thorpe told a Arizona Observer reporter that he was "gratified" with the win.
