Josh Jung plated five runs while the Seattle Mariners scored zero runs.
The Texas Rangers were up for playing spoiler tonight as they try to make the Seattle work for their first playoff appearance in over 20 years. A tandem of Jesus Tinoco and Tyson Miller did most of the early heavy lifting on the mound before the bullpen finished things off with 3 1⁄3 shutout innings.
Meanwhile, Josh Jung was terrorizing the Mariners at the plate with three hits, two dingers, and five runs driven in. The backbreaker came in the top of the 8th when Jung launched a three-run dong to turn a tense 2-0 game into a comfortable 5-0 win.
