    Young's walk-off hit leads Rangers past Orioles

    <h3>TEXAS 4, BALTIMORE 3</h3>ARLINGTON, Texas (Ticker) -- Michael Young's walk-off RBIsingle in the 10th inning lifted the Texas Rangers to a 4-3victory over the Baltimore Orioles in the opener of a three-gameseries Friday.

    Young sent the first pitch from Orioles reliever Paul Shuey(0-1) into left-center field to plate Travis Metcalf and givethe Rangers their fourth win in their last five games.

    After leading off the inning with a single, Metcalf reachedsecond on Jerry Hairston's sacrifice bunt and Ramon Vazquezfollowed with a walk, setting the stage for Young's heroics.

    Joaquin Benoit (3-2) picked up the win after pitching a perfect10th inning.

    Trailing, 3-2, entering the ninth, Baltimore tied the game whensecond baseman Brian Roberts blasted an RBI double to deepcenter off Eric Gagne.

    Gagne, who has just seven blown saves in his career, has notfailed to close out a ninth-inning lead since 2004. TheCanadian righthander had converted his last 30 saveopportunities.

    The Orioles' ninth-inning effort cost Rangers starter KameronLoe his fifth straight win. The 25-year-old righthandersurrendered five hits and three walks with three strikeouts oversix scoreless innings.

    After starting the season 1-6, Loe has posted a 4-0 record witha 2.14 ERA in five starts since June 7.

    Brad Wilkerson continued his recent power surge in the sixthinning by belting a two-run shot down the right-field line toput the Rangers up 3-0. The 30-year-old Wilkerson has hit fivehome runs in his last five contests.

    The Orioles began to chip away at the lead in the seventh asNick Markakis lined a double to right off Rangers reliever C.J.Wilson to cut it to 3-2.

    Orioles starter Jeremy Guthrie yielded three runs and five hitswith three walks and three strikeouts over six innings. The28-year-old righthander has managed just three wins since movingto the rotation on May 8 despite posting a 2.18 ERA in 12starts.

    The Rangers took a 1-0 lead in the second inning when Metcalfhad a leadoff doubled and scored on Vazquez's sacrifice fly.
