SEATTLE -- On Fan Appreciation Night, the Mariners gave folks who like offense plenty to appreciate Friday at Safeco Field, rolling to a 12-6 victory over the Rangers behind a four-hit night from Robinson Cano.
The Mariners second baseman continued his hot stretch run as he went 4-for-5 with a double and two RBIs, lifting his average to a team-leading .304 with two games remaining. Cano, who missed 80 games due to a suspension in midseason, has hit .476 (20-for-42) with six doubles, two home runs and 10 RBIs in the last 10 games.
Wade LeBlanc allowed six runs (five earned) on six hits over five innings, but picked up the win after being staked to a 9-0 lead after three frames.
