ARLINGTON, Texas, June 10 (UPI) -- A three-run homer by Geoff Jenkins in the 12th inning Sunday night lifted the Milwaukee Brewers to a 9-6 victory over Texas.
The Rangers' Marlon Byrd forced extra innings with an RBI single in the ninth, but the Brewers finally got to Willie Eyre (2-3) in his third inning of relief.

Eyre, the seventh Texas pitcher of the night, was victimized to start the 12th when Ryan Braun reached on a fielding error by Ian Kinsler.
Corey Hart then reached on an infield single and Jenkins hit the first pitch he saw over the wall in right.
Carlos Villanueva (5-0) got the win, pitching the 10th and 11th innings, and Claudio Vargas worked the 12th for his first save of the season.
