News about Seth Martinez

Marcus Semien went 3-for-3 with a homer prior to his suspension in the fifth innings, and Adolis Garcia captained a seven-run deluge with a grand slam in the same frame as the Texas Rangers avoided a series of sweeps with a 13-5 pummeling of the host Houston Astros on Wednesday. In the fourth and fifth innings, the Rangers extended their lead in the American League West to two games over the Astros by inflicting devastating two-out attacks, first against Houston ace Framber Valdez (8-7), and then off reliever Seth Martinez.
