With the bases loaded in the 6th Beltre grounds into an inning-ending double play. Then in the 8th with two on and two out Beltre strikes out. The Rangers clean-up batter is hitting just .215 this season, and even worse with runners in scoring position at .118.
Justin Grimm takes the loss after giving up a 3-run homer to Tyler Flowers in the 6th. Earlier Thursday Grimm named the American League Rookie of the Month, posting a 2-0 record and 1.59 ERA for three starts in April.
