Original game ticket from August 19, 1996, at Jacobs Field, when the Texas Rangers defeated the Cleveland Indians 10–3 in a power-heavy matchup featuring several stars of the era.


Juan Gonzalez led the Rangers with 4 RBIs, including a double and key hits in a 12-hit Texas attack. Dean Palmer added a 2-run homer (his 29th of the season) while Otis Nixon and Mark McLemore each drove in runs to extend the lead. Starter Roger Pavlik went the distance, throwing a complete game to earn his 14th win of the year.


For Cleveland, Albert Belle blasted his 40th home run of the season—one of his five straight 40+ HR years—and Brian Giles added an RBI double. The lineup also featured Jim Thome, Manny Ramirez, Omar Vizquel, and Sandy Alomar Jr., key members of the ‘90s Tribe powerhouse.
