DeShields, Holland help Rangers defeat A's 10-3

MESA, Ariz. -- Delino DeShields tripled, had two hits and two RBI, helping the Texas Rangers beat the Oakland Athletics 10-3 Tuesday.

Elvis Andrus and Michael McKenry added two hits each for Texas.

Rangers starter Derek Holland allowed two runs -- both unearned -- and three hits in three innings.

Rangers right field prospect Nomar Mazara appeared to catch Coco Crisp's third-inning fly ball to the warning track but dropped the ball after a couple of steps for an error that allowed Billy Burns to score from first and Crisp to reach third.
