Seattle began its eventual failed rally in the bottom of the sixth. Trailing 2-0, shortstop J.P. Crawford scored on a balk attributed to Rangers starting pitcher Merrill Kelly. Center fielder Julio Rodriguez hit an RBI double to knot the contest up 2-2.

Wyatt Langford hit a tiebreaking single in the 11th inning, and the Texas Rangers beat the Seattle Mariners 6-4 on Saturday. Batting with runners on the corners and nobody out, Langford sliced a fastball from Casey Legumina (4-6) into right field.

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.
