Cabrera has 4 hit night, Rangers Move to 9-3
It was a fun time at Globe Life Park in Arlington, where the Los Angeles Angels and Texas Rangers tangled.

The Texas Rangers powered past the Los Angeles Angels, 10-4, at Globe Life Park in Arlington. Asdrubal Cabrera was 4 for 4 with 2 doubles and 2 singles, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2, to lead the charge. Jon Lester got the win, improving to 2-0. He worked 5 innings, giving up 2 runs on 4 hits, while striking out 7 and walking 1.

The tide might have turned with one out in the top of the fourth, had not Jon Lester made a big pitch. With runners on 1st and 2nd and the Angels trailing 4-1, he retired Trevor Story, who flied out.

Texas is off to a hot start at 9-3.
