The Texas Rangers defeated the Chicago White Sox, 9-5, in American League action at Guaranteed Rate Field. Bryce Harper received player of the game honors. The 7-year veteran went 3-4 with 2 home runs and a walk, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2. Texas reliever Nick Goody picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. Ross Stripling shouldered the loss. Texas is now 33-15, 5½ games up in the American League West Division.

Harper had a big at-bat with the bases empty in the top of the third inning, when he hit a solo home run. The Rangers went on to win.

"One win at a time, one game at a time. We try not to get too far ahead of ourselves," Harper told the Texas Today.
