MLB: Texas 11, Baltimore 10

BALTIMORE (UPI) -- David Murphy hit a three-run, fourth-inning homer Sunday to help the Texas Rangers tip Baltimore 11-10.

German Duran had two hits and two RBI. Five others knocked in one run each and another run scored on Rahdemes Liz's third-inning wild pitch.

Murphy, Ian Kinsler and Ramon Vazquez each had three hits for the Rangers, who have won five of their last seven games.

Winner Kevin Millwood (6-4) yielded five runs -- three earned -- on nine hits in five innings.

Closer C.J. Wilson recorded his 21st save despite giving up homers to Kevin Millar and Melvin Mora in the bottom of the ninth.

Baltimore got three hits and three RBI from Nick Markakis. Five others had one RBI each. Millar had four hits and, like Markakis, Adam Jones had three hits in the Orioles' third loss in their last four games.

Liz (3-1) gave up six runs -- four earned -- on seven hits and five walks in 3 2/3 innings.
