The Texas Rangers topped the Oakland Athletics, 4-0, the lion's share of the credit going to right fielder Bryce Harper. On the day, Harper was 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 doubles, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2 for the Rangers. Diego Castillo closed the door for Texas, picking up his 1st save of the year. Early on, the Rangers, at 21-9, have excelled.

Max Muncy, who is on pace to hit 54 home runs this season, came through for Texas with a 2-run home run in the bottom of the sixth. The designated hitter went 2 for 3 for the game, including 1 home run and 1 double. He scored 1 run and collected 2 RBI.

Harper attributed the win to "a well-rounded effort by the whole team."
