Texas Rangers closer got Zobrist on a check-swing on an 82 mph curve, one pitch after the Rays hitter fouled off a 100 mph fastball. Texas Rangers wiggled off the hook when Michael Gonzales struck out Damon, and Feliz came on to fan Zobrist with the tying and go-ahead runs in scoring position. Texas Rangers' Adrian Beltre singled leading off the seventh against Price and took second on a wild pitch. The crowd of 32,828 fell silent when Napoli lifted a 2-2 pitch into the seats in left-center for a 2-1 advantage. Josh Hamilton extended the lead with a two-run single off reliever J.P. Howell.
Tampa Bay Rays' Desmond Jennings led off the eighth with his second homer, trimming Texas’ lead to 4-3. Mike Adams walked Upton, who was caught stealing, and then walked Longoria and Matt Joyce to get himself into trouble again. Rays' Jennings first homer was the only hit off the right-hander, who had worked 16 consecutive scoreless innings against the Rays up to that point—a stretch that began with a five-inning stint in last year’s ALDS. He followed that with an eight-inning performance to beat Price and the Rays on June 1.
