Arlington Stadium 1979 was the site of an exciting ballgame between the Texas Rangers and Minnesota Twins.

The Texas Rangers picked up a win at Arlington Stadium 1979, knocking off the Minnesota Twins, 4-3. Starting pitcher Jeff Byrd was a big reason why. The winning pitcher was Byrd, now 5-4. He tossed 7 innings of 4-hit ball, while walking 2 and fanning 6. Michael Heaton converted his 4th save in 5 tries.

Steve Garvey, who finished 5th in the NL in doubles with 32 in 1974, chipped in for Texas with a solo home run in the bottom of the fifth. For the game, the designated hitter had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 runs batted in.

"Jeff was able to execute his pitches," said Texas manager Zach Redpath. "Simple as that."

Texas now has a record of 29-29 with the win.
