Steve Kline, who had been incapacitated by a stiff elbow, gained his first victory since May 16 when the Yankees defeated the Rangers, 5-2. However, Kline was lifted after yielding two leadoff singles in the eighth inning and Sparky Lyle came in to record his 11th save. Toby Harrah, the Rangers' third baseman, committed three errors, resulting in a pair of unearned runs for the Yankees.
