| The Phillies jump out to a 4-0 lead, but former Phillie Marlon Byrd proves to be a royal pain in the ass as he gets 3 doubles on the day and scores a run. Even with the doubles, they don't really get involved in the scoring but Byrd is the hero when he gets a walk-off single to score the winning run through the drawn-in infield after Ryan Madson loads the bases in the bottom of the 9th. The Rangers have led the AL West for about the last month and a half despite being below .500 most of the season, but only recently have put together some wins by winning 6 of their last 7. At one time, Texas led the division with the pathetic record of 18-23! |

Milton Bradley had 4 hits as the Texas Rangers won at Ameriquest Field in
dramatic fashion over the Philadelphia Phillies, the final score, 5 to
4.
The game was won by Texas with a run in the bottom of the 9th inning. Ian
Kinsler stroked a base-hit. Michael Young followed and he laced a one-base
hit. Young took second on the throw. Josh Hamilton then drew a walk to load
the bases. Bradley came up and he slapped a base-hit giving Texas the win
much to the delight of the home town crowd. Texas had 12 hits for the game
and Philadelphia had 8.
The victory was credited to Luis Mendoza(1-1) who went 3 and 2/3 innings,
allowing 2 runs. Ryan Madson(1-4) was charged with the loss in relief. He
was unable to retire a batter allowing 3 hits and 1 walk.
