Rangers Earn 5-4 Win Versus Cubs
The Texas Rangers picked up a win at Wrigley Field, knocking off the Chicago (N) Cubs, 5-4, in 10 innings. On the mound for Texas was right-hander Hector Noesi. He played a pivotal role in the triumph. Earning his 1st save of the year was Buddy Groom. Chicago (N) drops to 7-6.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Luis Valbuena? The 21-year old second baseman Valbuena stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the tenth inning to put Texas up, 5-4. For the game, he was 3 for 4, including 1 double and 2 singles.

"It was a test of wills," said Kyle Shea, the Texas skipper. "I'm glad we came out of it with a win."
