Ortega Stars as Rangers Top Astros, 13-7
The home crowd had a good time watching the Houston Astros and Texas Rangers get after it.

The Texas Rangers knocked off the Houston Astros, 13-7, at Globe Life Field. Jose Ortega hit 2 singles and 2 doubles, while driving in 2 runs. The winner was Jeff Grabb in relief. His record improves to 2-0. Mat Schultz took the loss.

Ortega contributed a big hit, a 2-run double, for Texas in the bottom of the fourth. With his team trailing 5-4, Ortega took a slider from Mat Schultz and stroked the double to right-center. His 5th double of the season allowed the Rangers to leap in front, 6-5.

"It doesn't matter if you're 10 games over .500 or 10 games under, it feels good to win," Ortega told the Texas Citizen.

The Astros, 10-14, continue their sluggish start to the 2039 campaign.
