[May 09, 2009]  CHICAGO (AP) -- Matt Harrison threw a four-hitter in his second career shutout, leading the Texas Rangers defeated the Chicago White Sox 6-0 on Friday night.

Ian Kinsler and Omar Vizquel each drove in two runs, and and David Murphy scored three runs for the Rangers, who have won six of seven.

Harrison (3-2) hasn't allowed a run in 19 straight innings. He didn't allow a runner passed second base and only allowed one walk while striking out five.

Jose Contreras (0-5), who helped the White Sox win the 2005 World Series allowed five runs, three earned on six hits. He also hit one batter, threw two wild pitches and walked two.
