Worth noting

• The Rangers have yet to name a starter for Saturday's game against the Astros. When asked about the decision, manager Ron Washington said, "We haven't decided yet. We could wait until Saturday."

• Triple-A Round Rock outfielder Julio Borbon extended his hit streak to 21 games Tuesday, going 2-for-5 with a pair of doubles. Borbon is batting .430 during the streak, and if he extends it to 22 Wednesday, he will tie a team record set by Yangervis Solarte earlier this season.

• Colby Lewis improved to 5-5 with a four-hitter in the Rangers' 9-1 win over the D-backs in Tuesday's series opener. Lewis, who has a 3.13 ERA this year, has the lowest ERA of any American League pitcher who has made at least five starts and does not have a winning record.

• Craig Gentry is batting .529 over his last seven games, five of which he has started, including a 5-for-5 performance in Friday's win over the Giants. Washington won't make him an everyday player but said, "We certainly have been having to push him into more action. He's handled it well. He's got some big hits for us, made some good defensive plays, running the bases, using his skills."
