The Rangers and Giants exchanged runs in the fourth inning, with the Rangers' tally coming on Andruw Jones' second spring home run. He doubled off the base of the left-field wall to lead off the second inning.
The Giants answered with a leadoff triple by Nate Schierholtz that Jones couldn't keep from getting to the wall at the spacious Scottsdale Stadium. Schierholtz scored on a sacrifice fly by Kevin Frandsen.
First baseman Chris Davis left the game after his fourth-inning at-bat with stiffness/soreness in his patella tendon. The Rangers stressed that taking Davis out of the game was strictly a precautionary move.
