Rangers Rally For 3-2 Win
Austin Rangers starter Alfonso Zapata was definitely locked-in. He led his team to a win over the Richardson City Thundercats, 3-2. Gavin Blackburn earned the save for Austin, his 13th of the year. At 25-26, the Rangers are currently 5th in the Premier League.

In the bottom of the 8th, catcher Jeff Green gave Austin the lead when he hit a 2-run double. The Rangers had been trailing 2-1, but the two-out double off Richardson City pitcher Josef van der Poel changed that -- and Austin went on to win.

"Some wins are easy, some are difficult, but either way we come to the ballpark ready to work hard every day," Green told the Austin Chronicle.
