Andrelton Simmons left his imprint on the 7-3 Texas win against the Tampa Bay Rays. Simmons, who is tied for 3rd in the AL in hits with 26, went 3 for 4 with 3 singles and a walk, while adding 4 RBI. The Rangers, now 13-7, have been on a roll in the early going.

Simmons had a game-changing single in the top of the seventh. On a 2-0 fastball from Bryan Mitchell, he banged a 2-run single to left, giving the Rangers a 4-2 lead. It was the 26th hit of the year for Simmons.

"We cashed in when we had the chance," said Texas manager Eric Ferraro.
