Wandy makes case to fill dire need for Rangers

ANAHEIM -- Veteran left-hander Wandy Rodriguez missed a chance to get his first win in almost two years. But he should get more chances if he can build on his first start with the Rangers.

Rodriguez, making his first Major League appearance since May 21, 2014, with the Pirates, was a bit on the messy side but still held the Angels to one run in five innings and left with a 2-1 lead. That put him in position to earn his first Major League victory since May 26, 2013, before the Angels rallied to hand the Rangers a 3-2 loss.
