Sunday morning Rangers things

Morning everyone.

Jeff Wilson's game story talks about the Rangers sending Max Scherzer to defeat for the first time this season, with quotes from Ian Kinsler saying that the Rangers are good enough that it doesn't matter who is pitching for the other team.

T.R. Sullivan's game story focuses on Derek Holland, who is not going to the All-Star Game, outdueling All Star Max Scherzer to stop a three game Ranger losing streak.

Evan Grant writes that Derek Holland came up with a great start at the perfect time for the Rangers.

Todd Wills has his Rapid Reaction at the ESPN Dallas blog.

Leonys Martin hit second yesterday, and Ron Washington says he made the move to try to spark the lineup.

Grant reviews the first half of the Ranger season.

Drew Davison has a feature piece on Nelson Cruz.

Sullivan's notes talk about Leonys batting second, Colby Lewis starting a rehab assignment on Wednesday, Joseph Ortiz earning Miguel Cabrera's respect, and the Ranger rotation being up in the air with Justin Grimm and Yu Darvish sidelined.

The S-T's notes look at Leonys, Ortiz, and the status of the Rangers' injured pitchers.
