ARLINGTON, Texas — The Mariners salvaged a win in an otherwise forgettable series in Texas and Christian Bergman made another push to possibly remain in the starting rotation in the weeks ahead in a 7-3 victory over the Rangers on Sunday.
Bergman’s final line — 5 2/3 innings, giving up two runs on four hits with two walks and a strikeout — isn’t stellar. But given what the Mariners have been getting from their starting pitchers on this trip, including his previous clunker in Minnesota, it was an outing they will take.
Seattle improved to 34-37, snapping a three-game losing streak.
