Rangers Paste 7-4 Loss on Royals
Texas picked up a win at Royals Stadium 1973, bumping off the Kansas City Royals, 7-4. Pitcher Tim Leary was a major reason the Rangers emerged victorious. Leary picked up the win for Texas, going 7 innings. He gave up 3 runs on 6 hits. He now sports a record of 6-1. Texas now sits in 5th place in the American League West Division at 18-21.

The Royals had been locked in a 0-0 tie with the Rangers going into the top of the second inning. That changed quickly when the three-time All-Star Richie Hebner came to the plate. Hebner hit a 2-run home run on a 2-2 fastball from Kansas City hurler Bob Welch. It was Hebner's 5th home run of the year.

"We'll relax tonight and enjoy this win," said Leary.
