The Rangers finally get a win from a starting pitcher this month, as Justin Grimm is the winner in today’s 9 – 4 defeat of the A’s. The win comes by the skin of its teeth though, as Grimm is trailing 3 – 2 when he leaves after five innings, having just given up a three-run homer to Chris Young. However, his teammates rally for a pair of runs in the bottom of the inning, and the bullpen preserves the lead until the end of the game. The Rangers had gone 17 straight games since Derek Holland had last won as a starter on May 31st, setting an unenviable team record.
