Ibanez got those runs back with a two-run homer in the bottom of the sixth to make it 6-3.

Gosselin and Adell each collected RBI singles as the Angels tacked on four more runs in the seventh to stretch the lead to 10-3.

Rangers right fielder DJ Peters, who was claimed off waivers from the Los Angeles Dodgers on Monday, made his first start and delivered a check-swing single in the second inning.

Curtis Terry followed with a sinking liner just out of the reach of Marsh in center, allowing Peters to score from first for a 1-0 lead.
