In the sixth, with it still a game at 3-0, the Rangers threatened a two-out rally with a single by Seager and a double to the wall by Marcus Semien. Seager, a below-average runner, was held up at third. And stranded there when Adolis García struck out.

Cal Raleigh homered again, rookie Cole Young also went deep and George Kirby pitched six strong innings as the Seattle Mariners beat the Texas Rangers 6-0 on Thursday night. Raleigh hit his major league-leading 42nd home run in the fifth inning, two batters after Young hit his third, to give Seattle a 3-0 lead.

Phil Maton, yes that one from the Astros, is now going to be playing the rest of 2025 in Texas once again, but not in Houston. He will be joining one of the best bullpens and pitching staffs in all of baseball in Arlington with the Texas Rangers.
