The Texas Rangers topped the Seattle Mariners, 4-3, in AL action at The Ballpark in Arlington 1994-2011. The game was highlighted by the performance of Texas pitcher Justin Verlander. In 7.1 innings, Verlander surrendered 3 hits, while striking out 10 and walking 2. He allowed 2 runs. Sean Doolittle was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 33 of 35 save opportunities.

Mike Trout drew 2 walks in 4 trips to the plate for Texas. The five-time All-Star had a key at-bat in the bottom of the third. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Jered Weaver. It was his 98th RBI of the season.

"This was a nice win for us," said Trout. "It's one more step toward our ultimate goal."

The Rangers, at 113-39, have a comfortable 32-game lead in their division.
