ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - Eric Hurley pitched into the sixth
inning to earn his first major league win and Chris Davis homered
to lead the Texas Rangers past the Philadelphia Phillies, 5-1.
Hurley (1-1) allowed one run and five hits over 5 2-3 innings in
his fourth big league start. The 22-year-old rookie struck out
three and walked two.
Davis, a 22-year-old rookie who was called up from the minors
Thursday, became the first Rangers player to homer in each of his
first two starts, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. He hit a
two-run shot in his first start Friday against Philadelphia.
