Ian Kinsler and Josh Hamilton Push the Rangers to Victory 6-3 Over the Oakland Athletics

Ian Kinsler and Josh Hamilton both belted RBI doubles to push the Texas Rangers to a 6-3 victory over the Oakland Athletics.

The Rangers, who are still trying to get back on track after a 12-1 debacle against the Athletics played much improved baseball. Unlike his last appearance at the plate, a 21-8 massacre at the hands of the Seattle Mariners, Derek Holland pitched a good game. In five-plus innings of work Holland gave up just three runs. Holland, who has hopefully regained his confidence can continue to be a reliable member of the Rangers Rotation.

In their previous match-up with the Athletics, the Rangers made only 3 hits in their 12-1 loss against the Athletics, with their only run coming on a Mike Napoli home run. This time, the Rangers had 11 hits, with each starting hitter getting at least one.

After a shaky couple of weeks, do you think the Rangers are back on the right track?
