The Texas Rangers lost their managers, scoreboard, lead, and the game Sunday night before a sellout crowd at the Ballpark in Arlington.
Rangers manager Ron Washington and first-base coach Gary Pettis were both ejected during the game.
Starting pitcher C.J. Wilson, fresh off his first All-Star selection, went 7 1/3 innings, giving up just 1 earned run while striking out 9 before leaving the game with a 2-1 lead. Mark Lowe, Darren Oliver, and Neftali Feliz came in for the 8th inning and gave up 4 runs, with the help of fielding errors.
Even the new Rangers scoreboard went blank, suffering a power failure during the game.
Nelson Cruz and Adrian Beltre hit solo home runs for the Rangers.
Texas falls into a tie with the L.A. Angels for first-place in the AL West.
