Rangers with the walkoff homerun win by Young. Padilla struggled (again!) but the bullpen showed up and that would be 2 nice apperances by Wilson in a row.

[studcrackers]

people are suspecting padilla may be hurt as his fastball velocity has been down the past 2 starts

nice of the rangers to capitalize on the royals defensive gaffes after rarely capitalizing the other 5 games in this failure of a homestand. as bad as they've played they're only 5-7 and everyone in the al west lost today
