ARLINGTON, Texas - Mitch Haniger had a tiebreaking RBI single in the seventh inning and the Seattle Mariners bounced back from being no-hit in their last game with a 5-4 victory over the Texas Rangers on Friday night.
Dylan Moore and J.P. Crawford both hit tying two-run homers for the Mariners, who two days earlier at home were held without a hit when Baltimore's John Means faced the minimum 27 batters.
Nate Lowe homered for the Rangers, who had their three-game winning streak snapped. His 451-foot blast to straightaway center leading off the third extended his career-best on-base streak to 20 games in a row.
Chris Flexen (3-1) worked into the seventh, not giving up a run after Lowe's seventh homer leading off the third that put the Rangers ahead 4-2. Flexen scattered 10 hits with two strikeouts and a walk in 6 1/3 innings.
Kendall Graveman struck out three around a one-out double for his fourth save in as many chances. The right-hander has thrown 14 1/3 scoreless innings in his 12 appearances this season
Texas starter Mike Foltynewicz struck out five with one walk in his 6 2/3 innings before No. 9 batter Taylor Trammell greeted reliever Josh Sborz (3-2) with a checked-swing double that blooped into short left field near the line. Haniger followed with a single to left for a 5-4 lead.
Crawford reached base four times, going 3 for 3 and getting hit by a pitch. His first homer of the season made it 4-4 right after Ty France led off the fourth with a single that snapped his 0-for-24 slide.
That was two innings after Crawford's leadoff single was followed by Moore's shot that made it 2-2.
The Rangers were up 2-0 in the first after Nick Solak had an RBI double and then scored on a single by rookie Adolis Garcia.
Nationals 11, Yankees 4
NEW YORK - Washington burst ahead in a six-run eighth inning that included three errors and Josh Harrison's three-run homer, and the Nationals hammered the Yankees to stop a three-game skid.
With the score tied at 3 on a chilly night, Yadiel Hernndez lined a single against Jonathan Loaisiga (3-2) that right fielder Aaron Judge allowed to bounced off his glove for his first error since Sept. 30, 2018.

Trea Turner hit a go-ahead single and Harrison, batting .325 on the season, drove a 1-0 fastball into the left-field stands for a 7-3 lead.

Juan Soto, making his first start after missing 10 games with a strained shoulder, added a two-run homer against Cessa in the ninth.
New York's bullpen had a major league-best 2.24 ERA through Wednesday but Chad Green wasted a 3-2, eighth-inning lead in a 7-4 loss to Houston on Thursday, and Loaisiga and Cessa combined to allow eight runs - six earned - in two innings.
