Texas Rangers Magic Number Down to Two

The Texas Rangers are on the verge of winning the AL West for the 2nd year in a row and 7th time in franchise history, and after beating the L.A. Angels 5-4 last night.

Make it 20 homers for rookie Nomar Mazara in the win, a game marred by multiple ejections. With the win, the Rangers' magic number to win the division is 2.

The Houston Astros picked up a win last night, and they remain tied for 2nd place in the division with the Seattle Mariners.
