News
Rangers outfielder Nelson Cruz had one of the better games of his career on Friday night against the Blue Jays. He went 4 for 5 with a grand slam and eight RBI in the 14-3 win. He doubled home two in his first at-bat before leading off the fifth inning with a single. He would knock in Josh Hamilton with another base hit in the sixth before victimizing Jason Frasor for the fourth grand slam of his career in the seventh. Cruz has three home runs in May with 20 RBI. “You work almost a whole month to put up those type of RBIs,” manager Ron Washington told ESPN.com. “He did it in one night. That’s definitely what he’s capable of doing. I hope it’s something that he can continue. Maybe not drive in eight runs, but just continue to have good at-bats and good things will happen.”

Beltre went 2 for 4 in the game with a double and his ninth home run. He's batting .308 on the year.

News
Texas starting pitcher Scott Feldman did not come through with a solid outing on Wednesday afternoon in Seattle as he rejoined the rotation in Neftali Feliz’s vacated spot. Pitching at Safeco Field, Feldman struggled and left one out into the fifth inning as walks killed him with opposing starter Kevin Millwood pitching a gem. Feldman took the loss to fall to 0-2 on the season as he allowed five earned runs on three hits and five walks over 4 1/3 innings. Feldman was hurt by Alex Liddi’s grand slam in the fifth inning. He struck out one and his ERA is at 4.66 on the year.

News
Rangers catcher Mike Napoli was originally listed among the starters for Friday's game against the Blue Jays, however prior to the game he was scratched, as he has been dealing with an upset stomach. Yorvit Torrealba replaced him in the lineup. "He just feels lousy," manager Ron Washington told MLB.com. "He tried to move around and do something, but it's not necessary for me to run him out there. We'll give him today off and hopefully he'll feel better [Saturday]."

News
According to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, Rangers outfielder Josh Hamilton left Friday's series opener against the Blue Jays in the seventh inning due to a head cold. He went 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk before being replaced by Craig Gentry. His solo shot off Carlos Villanueva in the second was Hamilton's 19th long ball of the year.

News
Rangers pitcher Derek Holland saw a ton of run support on Friday night against the Blue Jays but he did not need most of it. He allowed two runs on five hits over 7 1/3 innings in the 14-3 win. The left-hander made it through his first five frames scoreless before before surrendering a solo homer to Edwin Encarnacion in the sixth. He would walk the leadoff batter in the eighth and after being pulled, the bullpen allowed the inherited runner to score. Holland also struck out a season-high nine and walked one while earning his fourth win of the season. “He stayed in control, didn’t try to get out of the innings too fast,” manager Ron Washington told ESPN.com. “He let the innings happen. Usually when Holland gets a big lead, he’s going to try to get three outs in one batter, but tonight he took it a batter at a time and executed his pitches extremely well.”

News
Rangers starting pitcher Matt Harrison bounced back from a couple of poor outings on Tuesday by tossing seven quality innings as the Rangers defeated the Mariners, 3-1. Harrison matched a season high with six strikeouts in the game, while scattering seven hits and two walks in his seven innings. He allowed just one run, in the first inning, and then settled down to push his record on the season to 5-3.
