In a close game the Texas Rangers got by the Minnesota Xpress by the score of 4 to 2.
Texas came up with 2 runs in the bottom of the 3rd inning. The critical plate appearance was by Thurman Munson who excited the crowd when he banged out a single bringing in two baserunners. The pitchers took over after the 3rd inning as neither team was able to score again.
Roger Moret(1-0) went 3 and 1/3 innings allowing no runs for the win. Tippy Martinez preserved the game for Moret, recording his his 1st save. Dan Warthen(0-3) was the losing pitcher. He allowed Texas 4 runs in 3 and 2/3 innings of work.
