Seldom-used Tom Grieve, who had been at bat only 30 times previously this season, hit a homer with two men on base in the second inning to enable the Rangers to defeat the Angels, 5-2, for their sixth straight victory. The homer and RBIs were the first of the year for Grieve. Jim Fregosi added a homer in the third inning.
