Rangers' 7 Runs Against Oakland... Washed Away

ARLINGTON (AP) - Heavy rains began soon after the Texas Rangers scored seven runs, leading to the postponement of Wednesday's game against Oakland and washing away the stats of the worst inning ever by Athletics starter Gio Gonzalez.

The skies were already threatening and a few raindrops started to fall while the Rangers sent 13 players to the plate in a seven-run third. All the runs were charged to Gonzalez, who left with two outs and the bases loaded.

Both teams have Thursday off, but the game won't be made up until Oakland returns to Texas later this season. It could be made up when they play the final series before the All-Star break in July.

The postponement was the 21st this season, matching the total of all last year.
