SEATTLE (AP) — A day af-

the Rangers kept on bash-
ing the ball all over Safeco
Field.

Logan Forsythe and Shin-
Soo Choo homered, Lance
Lynn allowed one run over
seven innings and Texas
routed the Seattle Mariners

"We just kept coming,"
manager Chris Woodward
said. "It's a testament to our
ballclub and what we pri-
oritize offensively. We are
going to keep coming at
you."
Coming off a 15-1 win in
which they had their most
hits (20) and runs of the
season, the Rangers had
17 hits Sunday to earn a
split of the four-game se-
ries with AL West-leading
Seattle. Pence was 3-for-5
with four RBIs and two runs
scored, and Choo and
Danny Santana also had
three hits apiece.
"We seemed to really take
advantage of any mis-
takes that were made
today," Pence said. "Just
kept putting good swings
on them and passing the
baton, as they say."
Lynn (3-2) had his best
start of the year, match-
ing his season highs in in-
nings pitched and strike-
outs (nine) and equaling a Celtics beat Bucks in openers
