In a well-pitched game between the Texas Rangers and the Kansas City Royals, pitcher Jeff Byrd was fantastic. The Texas right-hander helped his team secure the win, 2-1. The Rangers raised their record to 48-75.

Byrd dominated for Texas, raising his record to 8-10. Kansas City hitters had few good at-bats against the right-hander, who scattered 3 hits over 8 innings while striking out 7.

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