Jeff Burroughs and Mike Hargrove each collected three hits and drove in two runs apiece to lead the Rangers to a 7-3 victory over the Twins. Singles by Burroughs and Hargrove produced two of the Rangers' three runs in the fourth inning. Burroughs doubled and scored on a two-bagger by Hargrove when the Rangers added three more runs in the sixth. Burroughs homered for the Rangers' last run in the seventh. Steve Braun had a round-tripper for the Twins and Rod Carew, who had four hits in five trips, plated their other run with a double. [The Sporting News]
