Rangers Get 4-1 Win Versus Chicago (N)
Paul Menhart never let Chicago (N) get something going. The Texas right-hander commanded his curveball in pitching the Rangers to a 4-1 win. Menhart picked up the win for Texas, going 6 innings. He gave up no runs on 5 hits. He now sports a record of 4-9. The 7th-place Cubs have lost 4 straight games.

Ichiro Suzuki had a big 2-run double for the Rangers in the bottom of the fifth inning. With Texas leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 3rd, he got a fastball from Chris Holt, who is tied for 4th in the NL in quality starts with 12, and swatted a double to left. It was his 7th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Rangers ahead, 3-0.

"Makes our job easier," said Suzuki, "when our pitchers shut the opposition down."
