ARLINGTON, Texas -- Eddie Rosario might have had his first career cycle if not for 6-foot-5, 289-pound teammate Kennys Vargas lumbering ahead of him on the bases.Rosario homered, tied a career record with four hits and scored a career-high four runs as the Minnesota Twins beat the Texas Rangers 8-6 Saturday night. One of his two doubles, to the wall in right-center, might have gone for a triple as he trailed Vargas.Maybe. Maybe, Rosario said with a smile. Slow guy.The Twins, with the American Leagues worst record, have won four of six against the club with the leagues best record over the past nine days to clinch the season series with one game left. Minnesota has outscored Texas 47-25 in the six games.The Twins overall have won six of their last eight games.Ricky Nolasco (4-7) won for the first time since June 13. He allowed three earned runs and nine hits with no walks in six innings.Kyle Lohse (0-1) gave up six runs on nine hits after being officially added to Texas roster from Triple-A Round Rock earlier Saturday. Lohse, 37, last started a major league game last August for the Milwaukee Brewers. He made his big league debut with the Twins in 2001.Rosario, hitting .206 going into the game, hit his fourth home run of the season into the upper deck in right field in the fifth inning, doubled twice and singled. His previous four-hit game came on April 21 against the Brewers.It was Rosarios third multi-hit game of the season, his second in three games. The 24-year-old was hitting .200 when sent down to Triple-A Rochester in late May after hitting .267 in 122 games as a rookie last season. In seven July games since being recalled, hes hitting .346.I think weve seen a little bit of last years Eddie, and weve seen a little bit of the early-season Eddie, Twins manager Paul Molitor said. Hes getting a chance. Hes coming out there and just kind of letting it fly with a little bit more discipline.Eduardo Nunez hit his 12th home run of the season. His previous career high was five.Brandon Kintzler got a four-out save for his fifth of the season.Lohses five-inning start ended a club-record seven-game stretch during which no Rangers starter lasted that far. With Texas losing six of its last eight games, starters have an ERA of 10.45 during that span with opponents hitting .400. Three of the Rangers regular starters have been on the disabled list: Yu Darvish, Colby Lewis and Derek Holland.That in itself does put pressure on the offense, Rangers manager Jeff Banister said. Guys dont play as relaxed at times. Its obviously a challenge. We go as our starters go.The game began after a rain delay of 1 hour, 10 minutes.NOLASCO PICKS AGAINNolasco recorded his second successful pickoff in three weeks when he nabbed Ian Desmond in the first inning with one on and none out to help prevent what might have been a big inning for Texas. He got the Philadelphia Phillies Odubel Herrera on June 23.Most of the time its their fault more than mine, Nolasco said. I just try to keep `em close with some moves. It was huge.TRAINERS ROOMTwins: CF Byron Buxton (knee bruise) didnt play after leaving Fridays game in the first inning after colliding with the outfield wall. An MRI taken Saturday morning was negative. Either you go out there and play with all youve got, or you dont play at all, Buxton said. I try not to pay attention to the wall, worry about focusing on the ball.Rangers: Darvish (shoulder soreness) is scheduled to throw 75 pitches in a rehab assignment Sunday for Double-A Frisco. He is tentatively slated to start for Texas on July 16 at the Chicago Cubs.UP NEXTMinnesota LHP Tommy Milone (1-2) allowed one run over six innings in his last start, equaling his longest outing of the season to earn the win. Texas RHP A.J. Griffin (3-0) hasnt gotten a decision in three starts since returning from the disabled list (right shoulder stiffness).

McIlroy looked in danger of missing the cut after struggling to an opening-round 75 at Bay Hill, only to bounce back with a birdie-filled 67 on Friday to move back in to contention. Leaderboard Arnold Palmer Invitational The Northern Irishman was left surprised by his slow start to the tournament on Thursday, where he double-bogeyed the first and found the water three times, but had plenty more to smile about after a far more consistent display both tee to green and with the putter. McIlroy still sits 11 shots adrift of runaway leader Jason Day, although six birdies and just one blemish has given the 26-year-old plenty of encouragement heading in to the weekend.I said after yesterdays round I was just trying to stay patient and came out and started off really solid and kept it up, McIlroy said. I drove the ball nicely and hit a lot of good quality shots into the greens. Its very easy to get ahead of myself, especially with how Ive played earlier this year.You can get a little bit caught up in it sometimes but you just have to make sure youre doing the right things, youre working hard, youre working towards that goal and the last few days has been fantastic.Beginning on the back nine, McIlroy made the perfect start by holing a 15-footer at the 10th before draining another birdie from slightly further out at the par-5 12th. Rory McIlroy says he is going to focus on his own game over the weekend and not worry about chasing the leading pack at the Arnold Palmer Invitational.dddddddddddd Having tapped-in from close range over the next two, the Northern Irishman pitched to 10 feet at the 15th to move back level par for the week.McIlroys red-hot putting suffered a slight blip with a two-putt par from six feet at 16, but the world No 3 bounced back to drain a 14-foot par-save at the 18 and reach the turn in 33.After drilling in from over 30 feet at the first to get back under par for the week, McIlroy continued to surge up the leaderboard when pitched close to the third flag and leave a kick-in birdie. McIlroy was pleased with his improvement McIlroy recovered from a wayward approach to get up-and-down from the sand and save par at the next, before posting another long-range birdie from 25 feet at the fifth.His only blemish of the day came when he misjudged his chip out of the rough at the short seventh and failed to save par from 15 feet, with McIlroy closing his round with two two-putt pars.I had one kick-in on three but for the most part played the par-fives great again and just putted great, McIlroy added.The two bombs that I holed today on 17 and nine definitely helped, but I felt like these sorts of scores were coming, so I just had to be patient with myself.Watch the Arnold Palmer Invitational throughout the week live on Sky Sports 4 - your home of golf Also See: Bay Hill leaderboard First round highlights Slow start shocks McIlroy Golf live on Sky Sports 4 ' ' '
