ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - Victor Diaz hit a grand slam in the first inning for Texas off Nate Robertson, and the Detroit starter didn't retire a batter in the Rangers' 7-4 victory Tuesday night.
The slam by Diaz came right after an RBI single by Sammy Sosa, who has gone two weeks without a homer to remain stuck at 598 for his career. Marlon Byrd followed with a triple into the right-centerfield gap and Robertson (4-6) was done after six batters, 30 pitches and no outs.
Michael Young went 4-for-4 for Texas, which lost five straight home games before its just-completed 2-5 road trip.
