Notes: Per the Fort Worth Star-Telegram:

This is only the second time since 1996 that the Rangers have played on the road for July 4th. The other time in that stretch was 2004, when they beat Houston in Houston 18-3. The Rangers are 21-7 on the 4th and have won 14 of their last 17. There are no post-game fireworks at Camden Yards today. There will be a show at 9:30 in the harbor.

    Bradley got a really nice piece of a ball way too low, and drove in Hamilton.

    To use a fireworks metaphor, that game was a big fizzled-out dud. There goes any chance Padilla had to be an all-star. And I imagine his trade value just took a pretty substantial hit, too.
