Rangers Roll to 9-0 Win Over Mariners
The Texas Rangers and starting pitcher Kendall Graveman stifled the Seattle offense en route to a comfortable 9-0 win at Safeco Field. The first-place Rangers have their sights set on making a deep playoff run.

Asdrubal Cabrera, who is a two-time All-Star, aided the Texas cause with a run-scoring walk in the top of the fourth. For the game, the designated hitter drew 1 walk in 4 plate appearances, while scoring 2 times.

"I like winning," Cabrera told the Texas Today. "I may joke around, but when it comes down to it, winning is the most important thing."
