Yankees Sneak By Rangers, 5-4
The New York Yankees topped the Texas Rangers, 5-4, with designated hitter George Kaage playing a big role. Kaage went 3 for 3 with 3 singles and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for the Yankees in the win. Texas's current losing streak has reached 5 games.

New York used the timely hitting of Willie Wilson to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Yankees on top, 5-4. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"I just tried to make good contact," said Wilson.
