BOSTON -- It didnt matter to the Rangers that the Boston Red Sox dominated the AL All-Star team, with six players making the roster -- and the possibility of another -- to two for Texas.No ones keeping score that (way), Rangers outfielder Ian Desmond said.When the season is over, no one is going to lk back and say that team had seven All-Stars or that team had two. Its going to be this team won the World Series and everybody else came in second, he said after Texas beat Boston 7-2 on Tuesday night. They can have seven. We can have two. It doesnt matter.Shin-S Ch homered on David Prices first pitch of the game, and Robinson Chirinos hit a three-run shot off All-Star closer Craig Kimbrel in the ninth to help the Rangers snap a three-game losing streak.Texas loaded the bases after Chs homer and tk a 2-0 lead in the first, then made it 3-2 when Elvis Andrus scored to break a sixth-inning tie. It stayed that way until Kimbrel came on in the ninth and failed to retire any of the four batters he faced.In 12 pitches, a lot happened, said Red Sox manager John Farrell, whose team stranded 14 baserunners and went 2 for 16 with runners in scoring position. We had ample opportunity, with runners on base in almost every single inning. A missed opportunity tonight.The Red Sox had the most players selected to the AL roster for next weeks All-Star Game in San Diego, and second baseman Dustin Pedroia would make it seven if he wins the final vote. Texas had just Desmond and pitcher Cole Hamels.To have two -- and only two -- it speaks volumes to the team aspect of how our guys play, Rangers manager Jeff Banister said. If were going to be limited to two, (its) the right two guys.Price (8-6) threw 46 pitches in first two innings -- 45 after Ch drove the first one of the game out to center. Texas loaded the bases on two singles and a walk before Prince Fielder struck out lking -- drawing a mock cheer from Boston fans.But the Rangers managed just one more run in the inning. Price settled down and the Red Sox tied it before Andrus singled and scored to make it 3-2 on Rougned Odors double.He flipped the switch tonight in like the third or fourth inning, Desmond said. He threw the ball really well. I think in his case it was just a little bit t late.Rangers starter A.J. Griffin left after four innings, and Cesar Ramos (3-3) pitched 1 1/3 scoreless innings for the win.Mkie Betts, Pedroia and Travis Shaw had two hits apiece for the Red Sox. Jackie Bradley Jr. homered for Boston, which had won two straight.ALL-STARSBetts, Bradley and shortstop Xander Bogaerts will start for the AL in the All-Star Game, joining designated hitter David Ortiz, making his 10th and final appearance. Kimbrel and knuckleballer?Steven Wright?were also selected.For a team with six All-Stars, the Red Sox arent playing very well. Boston is 8-13 since opening June with a three-game lead in the AL East, falling into third place.I dont think we are as bad as were showing, Bradley said. Were definitely capable of putting together a gd run. Hopefully that comes sn.PRICE IS WRONGIn all, Price allowed three runs, eight hits and a walk, striking out 10. But he didnt want to talk about how he settled down and lasted eight innings, how he fanned Desmond in the fifth for his 1,500th career strikeout, or how he posted his sixth game of the season with 10 or more strikeouts.Theres nothing positive to put out, he said. Im tired of this. Its not me. Ive got to get better.TRAINERS RMRangers: Ch left the game in the fifth with lower back stiffness. ... 1B Mitch Moreland (right calf tightness) was not in the starting lineup for the third straight game. ... With three starters on the DL, Texas called up RHP Jose Leclerc from Triple-A Round Rock and designated LHP Michael Roth for assignment. Leclerc, 22, has split time between Double-A Frisco and Round Rock this season and has never played in the majors.Red Sox: Boston activated veteran C Ryan Hanigan (neck strain) from the 15-day DL following a rehab stint with Triple-A Pawtucket. The Red Sox optioned C Christian Vazquez to Pawtucket after Monday nights game against Texas.UP NEXTRangers: LHP Martin Perez (7-4, 3.39 ERA) is 6-0 with two no-decisions in his last eight starts.

Smith realized how easily basketball can be taken from him, and he wasnt going to take his place in the NBA for granted anymore.PHILADELPHIA -- Before a 10-game stretch against National League East division foes closes out the season, the Philadelphia Phillies first have to deal with their two final interleague games.The Chicago White Sox visit to end a nine-game home stand for the Phillies (67-83). Philadelphia is 4-3 during the stretch at Citizens Bank Park after a 5-4 loss to the Miami Marlins on Sunday.The White Sox (72-7 come into the City of Brotherly Love off an 8-3 loss to the Kansas City Royals on Monday, the third consecutive defeat in a four-game series that was the opening part of a nine-game road trip.With both teams all but mathematically eliminated from playoff contention, the remaining two weeks of the 2016 season become about evaluating some young talent in the system as well as seeing who is worth keeping around for 2017.Though the made his first All-Star Game appearance this year, Phillies center fielder Odubel Herrera had been in a slump most of the second half, batting just .240 with three home runs and nine RBI in 52 games from July 15-Sept. 11.However, in the past six games heading into the White Sox series, he was on a tear, batting .500 (12-for-24) with four doubles and a home run, putting together a 1.312 on-base-plus-slugging percentage.Phillies manager Pete Mackanin noticed an uptick in Herreras production with the arrival of rkie outfielder Roman Quinn, who is hitting .219 (7-for-32) in eight games since his call-up earlier in the month.I think the minute Quinn got here, (Herrera) started turning it on, Mackanin said. He saw Quinn and said, Wait a minute, Im better than this guy. I better get back on track.Everyone needs a little bst now and then, and I think that might have something to do with it. Nevertheless, he lks much better than he did the for the past five weeks.ddddddddddddAnother player the Phillies front office is still evaluating is the Tuesday night starter, rkie Jake Thompson, who has had an uneven first eight starts at the major league level.After putting together an 11-5 record with a 2.50 ERA in 21 starts at Triple-A Lehigh Valley before his August call-up, the right-hander is 2-5 with a 5.64 ERA since donning the Phillies uniform for the first time.His past four starts have been much more impressive, though. In that span, he owns a 2.49 ERA (25 1/3 innings, seven earned runs) despite a 1/3 record, though his strikeout-to-walk ratio (17-to-9) needs some work.Chicago manager Robin Ventura counters with a veteran making his 350th career appearance (349th start), right-hander James Shields.Shields (5-17, 5.84 ERA) posted double-digit wins in every season from 2007-15 but has struggled mightily since a June trade that brought him from the San Diego Padres to the White Sox. He is 3-10 with a 6.94 ERA for his new team.His last time out, he held the Cleveland Indians to one run on three hits in a no-decision Thursday.His curveball was the best Ive seen it since hes been here, Chicago manager Robin Ventura said. It had something to it. There was some depth to it. It was sharp, he was able to use it a couple times to get out of some binds.Indians manager Terry Francona added, He did well enough with his off-speed to kind of keep us off balance. The one thing he does is he competes.Shields faced the Phillies on Aug. 24, and he gave up four runs in six innings during a 5-3 loss. Thompson opposed the White Sox the previous day, and he gave up seven runs in five innings during a 9-1 defeat. ' ' '
