ARLINGTON, Texas -- Adam Rosales got the pitch he was expecting from Los Angeles Angels closer Huston Street on Sunday. The Texas utilityman hit that pitch over drawn-in left fielder Collin Cowgill for an RBI single, capping a two-run rally in the ninth inning that lifted the Rangers over the Angels 3-2. ""His scouting report is that he throws 60 to 70 per cent sliders, so youre looking to hit that pitch," Rosales said. "Once you see the ball drop, you get that release of joy. Its a happy feeling." Texas had lost four in a row overall, and nine straight to the Angels. Los Angeles had won its last four games. Rosales drove in the winning run for the second time in six days -- the only games Texas won on a seven-game homestand. His single was the Rangers fourth straight hit off Street to begin the ninth. Alex Rios and Adrian Beltre opened with singles, setting up RBI singles by Mike Carp and Rosales. Rosales ended a 5-4 victory over Tampa Bay on Tuesday with a bases-loaded walk in the 14th. Street (1-1) had saved the first two games of the three-game series. The blown save was his second in 35 opportunities with the Angels and Padres. Street had not given up a run since being acquired from San Diego on July 18 until Carps tying single. "I didnt make very good pitches today," Street said. "Thats the bottom line. I felt fine." Neftali Feliz (1-1) pitched a scoreless ninth inning. Cowgills bases-loaded single and Kole Calhouns RBI grounder drove in second-inning runs against Nick Tepesch. "That second inning could have really got ugly in the past," Rangers manager Ron Washington said. "This was the new Nick Tepesch. Its starting to come together for him." Tepesch went seven innings for the second straight start. Angels starter Hector Santiago pitched six innings, allowing a run and four hits. Rosales singled, stole second base and scored on Rougned Odors single in the fifth. Tepesch left after a leadoff walk to Mike Trout in the eighth. The Angels loaded the bases with no outs, but didnt score. "In the end," Washington said, "We were able to get their closer."
