Notes & reviews

Rangers 3B Michael Young did not come off the bag to field the throw by Jeff Francoeur, which was about 4 feet to the HP side of the bag; pitcher C.J. Wilson was backing up half way between 3B and home; he ran over to get the ball and threw it over the head of catcher Matt Treanor
Nelson Cruz left game due to injured leg
