The Rangers beat the Cleveland Indians 2-1 on Sunday, taking three of four games in a series between division leaders.What we always talk about is being consistent and I want to make sure Im showing that, Holland said.

Ive got to continue to worry about staying consistent.Ian Desmond and Jonathan Lucroy each had an RBI single for Texas, which has an 8 1/2-game lead over Houston and Seattle after both those AL West rivals lost Sunday.

He threw 62 of his 84 pitches for strikes against the AL Central-leading Indians.When Derek throws strikes, Derek has success, Rangers manager Jeff Banister said.

Gomez was sprinting back and reaching over his head when he made the catch.We had a few chances, Indians manager Terry Francona said. (Napoli) hit his ball and Gomez made a nice play, but we didnt have a ton of chances.That was an inning after Gomez made a leaping catch with his glove extended as his body crashed into the left-field wall to rob Jose Ramirez of a hit.ddddddddddddGomez played his fourth game for Texas after playing in 85 earlier this season for the Houston Astros, who designated the two-time All-Star for assignment Aug. 10.He was the hero today, Holland said. I may have pitched a fairly good game ... those are two big, huge catches.RUN AFTER REVIEWDesmonds run-scoring single in the second came on the first pitch after Elvis Andrus had been initially called out on a stolen base. The Rangers challenged and Andrus, who went to second while Nomar Mazara struck out, was ruled safe on a replay review that extended the inning.NOTHING EXTRAThe Indians finished with six hits, and the Rangers had five. All of them were singles. It was only the third game in the 22-year history of the Rangers ballpark that didnt include any extra-base hits. The previous one was against the Los Angeles Angels three years ago.SCORING SLUMPThe Indians won 12-1 on Friday night, their only win in Texas. Cleveland scored four runs total in its other six games the past week, and was shut out twice in Texas.TRAINERS ROOMIndians: Just before the deep fly Gomez caught, Ramirez fouled a pitch off his right leg, just above his knee. ... LF Brandon Guyer was hit by a pitch in the fifth inning. It was the third time in this series and MLB-high 28th time this season he was plunked.Rangers: There was a short delay in the fourth inning when team photographer Kelly Gavin was struck on the back of the head by a foul ball hit into the photographers well at the far end of the Rangers dugout. Gavin got the rest of the day off, and team officials said she would be OK.UP NEXTIndians: Start a 10-game homestand Monday night with right-hander Trevor Bauer (9-6) on the mound against Minnesota, which has the ALs worst record.Rangers: Darvish (4-3, 2.91) makes his third major league start against fellow Japanese pitcher Hisashi Iwakuma in the opener of a three-game series against Seattle on Monday night.
