ARLINGTON, Texas -- John Jaso finally got in the lineup for the Seattle Mariners, and came through with big hits off two of the Texas Rangers top relievers. Jasos RBI single in the ninth inning capped a three-run rally off of new Texas closer Joe Nathan that pushed the Mariners past the two-time defending American League champions 4-3 on Wednesday night. The Mariners had gone 23 consecutive innings without scoring in the series before No. 9 hitter Jaso led off the eighth with a triple into the right-field corner off Alexi Ogando and scored on Dustin Ackleys single. "I was happy to finally get in there," Jaso said, a catcher who made 67 starts for Tampa Bay last season. "I thought it was a good debut for me in a Mariners uniform." His manager and teammates would certainly agree. Jaso was the designated hitter for his first game. Jesus Montero, the DH his first five starts, got his first action behind the plate while regular catcher Miguel Olivo got a night off. "One of the toughest things to do when youre not playing every day is to stay ready," manager Eric Wedge said. Justin Smoak led off the ninth with a single against Nathan (0-2) before Kyle Seagers double. Montero then had a sacrifice fly and Michael Saunders an RBI double before Jaso blooped a curveball into short centre. "The only thing that I could see is they hit a lot of sliders, not terrible sliders. I think theyre looking for that pitch and waiting for it," Nathan said. "A lot of those pitches were sliders down that they served into right and found outfield turf. Credit to them putting good swings on." Rookie left-hander Lucas Luetge (1-0) had two strikeouts in 1 1-3 innings for his first major league victory. Brandon League worked the ninth for third save in three chances. Before the Rangers bullpen faltered, Ian Kinsler and Elvis Andrus hit back-to-back homers and Colby Lewis worked 6 2-3 scoreless innings. Texas led 1-0 with two outs in the seventh before Kinsler hit a solo homer to left. Elvis Andrus immediately followed with an even longer shot for his first of the season. Kinsler, who earlier in the day had finalized a new $75 million, five-year deal that kicks in next season, also doubled. But with pinch-runner Brandon Snyder at second base with one out in the ninth, Kinsler struck out before Andrus had an inning-ending liner to first. Lewis, who had nine strikeouts in his opening day victory, struck out six with no walks against the Mariners. It was his 100th major league start in a career that began with Texas in 2002 and included two seasons in Japan before returning to the Rangers in 2010. Alexi Ogando worked 1 1-3 innings, giving up his first run in four appearances this season when Jaso scored. Nathan had saved his first two chances, including the Rangers 1-0 victory Tuesday night, but lost a game Saturday night against the Chicago White Sox after giving up a leadoff homer in the ninth of a tie game. "Hell be fine," said Michael Young, the Rangers longest-tenured player. "We have all the confidence in the world in Joe. We look forward to getting another lead and gettting him back out there." Kevin Millwood, Seattles oldest pitcher at 37, allowed one run with seven strikeouts and three walks over six innings in his first start of the season. The back-to-back homers by Kinsler and Andrus came against right-hander Steve Delabar. Earlier Wednesday, the Rangers announced the new deal for Kinsler, the two-time All-Star second baseman who twice in the past three seasons has had 30 homers and 30 stolen bases. The 29-year-old Kinsler is in his seventh season, and his new deal includes a club option for 2018. He will make $7 million this season, and $13 million next year in the first year of the new contract. Andrus, the 23-year-old shortstop in his fourth major league season, signed a three-year deal over the winter that takes him through his potential arbitration season. The Rangers went ahead in the first after Josh Hamilton had a two-out double. Chone Figgins misplayed the ball, which bounced under his glove and got past him. Michael Young drove Hamilton home with a single and a 1-0 lead. Nelson Cruz drew the second Texas walk in the first to load the bases for David Murphy, who had an AL-best five extra-base hits the first five games. Millwood started by throwing three consecutive balls to Murphy before coming back to get the inning-ending strikeout. "He didnt have it early on. He was up," Wedge said. "Its a credit to him that hes able to find it. .... One of the best Ive ever seen in regard to controlling damage. He did it in the first and later in the game." Millwood was with Texas from 2006-09. The only active pitchers with more than Millwoods 2,565 1-3 career innings pitched or his 416 starts are 49-year-old Jamie Moyer and Livan Hernandez.

Rangers C Mike Napoli didnt play a night after being hit in the helmet by a pitch. Napoli said he felt fine and manager Ron Washington said the only reason he wasnt in the lineup was because it was Yorvit Torrealbas turn to catch. nike Air Max Thea Print Natural musta miehet Running .

He has spent much of his adult life trying to give back to his native South Sudan, the war-torn African nation the Cavaliers forward and his family fled when he was a young boy. And while Dengs contributions have touched many, he knows the work will never end. "I wish I could wake up tomorrow and nobody needs help," Deng said. "But we all know thats not going to happen. Im just happy to be in the position that Im in to be able to do the things that Im able to do." On Tuesday, Deng was commended for his compassion and dedication when he was named the winner of the J. Walter Kennedy Citizenship Award, given annually to an NBA player, coach or trainer for outstanding community service. Deng has had a long commitment to philanthropic work in South Sudan, which gained independence in 2011 but has been ravaged by ethnic violence. The two-time All-Star, who came to Cleveland in a trade from Chicago in January, recently recorded a public service announcement for EnoughProject.org, urging peace in his homeland. In a video directed at the nations youth, Deng says, "Look around you, and reach out. Make peace among those who are fighting. Forgive one another and encourage others to forgive. Build trust with people who fear each other. You are young, and if you are wise, you will build bridges with people your age that will last a lifetime." The video is a small sample of Dengs attempts to help others. The 29-year-old also has established The Luol Deng Foundation, a global non-profit organization using basketball as a platform to bring hope to those less fortunate in Africa, the United Kingdom and the United States. His work in Africa has focused on the construction of outdoor courts and initiatives to bring together local communities. His charity work in the U.S. has been focused primarily on his two NBA homes -- Chicago and Cleveland. He has funded holiday evennts in the cities, providing meals and toys to the needy.dddddddddddd. He has served as a mentor to the "Lost Boys of Sudan" and supported the NBAs "Basketball Without Borders" program. Deng is the third Cleveland player to win the award, joining Austin Carr (1979-80) and Eric Snow (2004-05). He also joins an illustrious list of past winners, including Dave Bing, Isiah Thomas, Julius Erving, Magic Johnson, Dikembe Mutombo, David Robinson, Kevin Garnett and Steve Nash. The award is named after the leagues second commissioner. Dengs journey to pro stardom is almost unbelievable. One of nine children, he and his family left Sudan and lived as refugees in Egypt before going to England. Cavs coach Mike Brown was fully aware of Dengs background before the forward came to Cleveland. Brown was thrilled that Deng was honoured. "Its well-deserved," Brown said after practice. "From what hes come from and his life experience is off the charts. He told me about it and I was touched. To see where he is now, and for him to know my job is not done, I was one of the fortunate ones. Because of where I am, I have a platform to help bring awareness for others. "Its a remarkable thing. I dont know how he does it. You applaud him. Obviously, you applaud his parents for raising him the way they did. Its an amazing story. I would be surprised if his life story doesnt turn into a Hollywood movie deal someday. Its that special." Deng finds greater reward in helping others. "Its one of those things when I talk to my parents about it, theyll be very proud," said Deng, who has been slowed by a sore back. "I dont have any kids, but its one of those things where, when you have a kid and your kid calls home and tells the parents what award he won, theyll be proud that theyve done a good job. "Its all about helping other people and just doing what makes you happy in life." cheap nfl Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap Jerseys cheap nfl Jerseys wholesale Jerseys ' ' '
