Dallas hasnt ruled out the star quarterback for Sunday nights game against Philadelphia, but all signs point to Romos back injury pushing Kyle Orton into the starting role after two years of limited play as the backup.

Its as simple as that. Start hitting and start getting some run production.Ventura (6-9) allowed only four hits, but three were home runs. That included the second of Mitch Morelands two shots, both to the opposite field, which broke a 2-2 tie in the eighth inning.Ventura struck out six and walked only one. He said through a translator that he was able to do with the ball what he wanted, keep it low in the strike zone.I hate that the result was what it was, but I thought he pitched a great game, Yost said. He got out on a couple of pitches but less than a handful. He really stayed within himself.In Venturas last six starts, he has five losses and a no-decision. His most recent win came on June 17.The game was a pitching rematch of the Rangers 7-4 win in Kansas City last Saturday, with the same pitchers of record.

Gordon had singled and advanced to third on a blooper to center by Brett Eibner that broke an 0-for-19 streak.JUST PLAYING AROUNDWhen Rougned Odor homered off Ventura in the second inning, the two exchanged stares. Both are known to get emotional on the field, but Ventura said they were simply having fun.Even though were not on the same team, I have a good friendship with him, Ventura said through the translator.
