In case you missed it last night, the Angels lost, meaning the Rangers' lead in the A.L. West is back up to 3.5 games.

Drew Davison's game story talks about Colby Lewis's dominant outing, with Lewis taking a perfect game into the 6th inning.

T.R. Sullivan writes that Lewis got a lot of run support yesterday in pitching his second straight complete game, after losing 2-0 his last time out.

Anthony Andro's game story focuses on Lewis's flirting with perfection in yesterday's win.

Gerry Fraley has his observations from yesterday's win at the DMN Rangers blog.

Richard Durrett has his "Rapid Reaction" at the ESPN Dallas blog.

Gil Lebreton has a column on Roy Oswalt, saying that Oswalt is still a little ways away from contributing to the major league staff, and containing quite a few quotes from Oswalt.

Andro writes about Alexi Ogando missing the next 4-6 weeks with groin injury, and the Rangers' scrambling to replace him in the rotation (where he was replacing Derek Holland).

Davison has a story on Ogando heading to the d.l.

Sullivan has a story on the "Fab Five," the Rangers top five draft picks who all signed yesterday.

The S-T's notes talk about Derek Holland and Neftali Feliz starting a throwing program soon, Matt Harrison focusing on his tempo on the mound, and Nelson Cruz missing yesterday's game with a virus.

Sullivan's notes talk about Cruz's virus, Saturday's starter being unknown, and Holland no longer being sick.
