5-9 - Rangers swiftly snatch a 2-0 win from Athletics

The Texas Rangers scored two runs while the Oakland Athletics scored zero runs.

In a game that seemed to fly by where both team’s starting pitchers combined to allow just five hits total while tossing 13 1⁄3 innings between them, it was the Rangers that came out on top.

Tied 0-0 going into the 8th, it was Texas that broke through with Brad Miller finally driving in the go-ahead and eventual game-winning runs with a two-out, two-run RBI single. A’s starter Frankie Montas was the hard luck loser as he was pinned with both runs after 7 1⁄3 innings of 3-hit ball with just one walk and eight strikeouts.
