Durn and Daz homers, Quantrill's 6 scoreless innings help Rangers beat Angels
5-3
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) --- Ezequiel Durn and Elias Daz hit solo homers, Cal
Quantrill worked six scoreless innings and the Texas Rangers beat the Los
Angeles Angels 5-3 on Sunday.
With the win, the Rangers moved into a tie with the Houston Astros for first
place in the AL West with records of 65-66.
Durn put Texas on the board early, launching his 14th home run of the year
into the left-center seats for a 1-0 lead. Cody Freeman added an RBI triple ---
his first of the season --- before Daz extended the lead to 5-0 in the fifth
inning with a solo homer, his sixth of the season.
Quantrill (6-4) allowed six hits, didn't allow a walk and struck out six. He
now boasts five-straight starts of five or more innings allowing a run or less,
and extended his scoreless innings streak to 15.
Jacob Latz worked a one-hit ninth for his 26th save of the season.
Zach Neto started an eighth-inning rally for the Angels with a homer. Josh Lowe
hit a sacrifice fly, and Gustavo Campero added an RBI single, but that was all
the offense the Angels mustered.
Yusei Kikuchi (0-4) allowed all five runs on seven hits. He struck out four in
five innings for Los Angeles.
