Texas Rangers starter Scott Feldman (6-6) worked into the eighth inning and became the first pitcher in 29 years to win six consecutive decisions after starting the season 0-6, as the Royals dropped their second in a row to Texas, losing 4-2.
Josh Hamilton, who leads the majors with 90 RBIs, hit an opposite-field single in the third inning to score Ian Kinsler and Elvis Andrus. Kinsler singled with one out and went to third on Andrus’ double against Royals rookie Will Smith (2-4) gave up four runs and eight hits over 5 2/3 innings in losing his third straight start.
