The top of the first wasn’t as clean as you’d like for a bullpen game, but Mantiply got Semien to groundout after 8 pitches and Seager to fly out on one. Unfortunately Garver worked a 2-out walk to bring Carter up. But he popped out to Thomas in center, so no harm done. Andrew Heaney got the bullpen call for Texas to start tonight. Marte used him to extend THE STREAK to 20 games. Sadly Carroll and Moreno struck out swinging before Marte got thrown out trying to steal second during Walker’s at bat....
Mantiply continued into the second, but gave up a double to Jung before Lowe struck out and Castro took over.
