ARLINGTON, Texas — The two-step continued in Texas. The Mariners’ nonstop, second-half dance around the .500 mark has move two steps ahead the past two days for an even 73-73 record after the 8-1 trouncing Wednesday of the Rangers at Globe Life Park.
Seattle’s offense continued to torment Texas pitching for a second consecutive night, banging out 11 hits, including three homers — two by Mike Zunino.
Over the past two games, the Mariners have scored 18 runs on 26 hits as they try to hit their way into the wild-card race.
The run support was more than enough for the Seattle pitchers.
