Instant replay and observations from the Rangers' 3-1 win over Seattle Tuesday at Safeco Field:
What you need to know: After the Mariners bungled a run-scoring opportunity in the seventh, the Rangers fashioned the go-ahead run from a pinch-hit double by Carlos Gomez, a bunt single by Delino DeShields and a sacrifice fly from Shin-Soo Choo. Elvis Andrus added an RBI single to make it 3-1. The win moved the Rangers within 3.5 games of Minnesota for the second wild card spot with 12 games to play.
Dude of the day: Adrian Beltre, still playing on just one leg and a few shreds of a hamstring, singled twice.
