Rangers Notes: Benson has to go!


Tough night for the Texas team. Jon Lester carried a perfect game into the 7th inning before Michael Young broke it up with a double to left-center. Holland got the start and had his best stuff with his fastball consistently hitting 97 mph, but a balk in the 5th inning led to the Sox's 2nd run and the wheels fell off for young Derek.

Other Notes:
Kris Benson has to be designated for assignment immediately following the game. His line for the night: 2.1 IP, 4 runs, 3 ER, 3 BBs, and 1 SO. His E.R.A. is now up to 8.46.

Andrus was the only Ranger not to strikeout against Lester.

Michael Young had both hits for Texas.

Padilla pitches tomorrow....how do you think he will do?
