Rangers right-hander Jordan Lyles (1-4) allowed just three hits in 6 1/3 innings, but gave up all four runs. Like Dunn, Lyles walked four, struck out four and allowed two homers.

The Mariners opened the scoring in the bottom of the first. J.P. Crawford and Ty France walked before Lewis grounded into a double play. Seager lined a 3-2 pitch over the wall in right-center field.

Gallo led off the second with a homer to right field, his team-leading eighth of the season.

The Rangers got that run back when Taveras hit a solo shot with two outs in the fifth.

The Mariners scored the lone run not via the long ball in the seventh. With one out, Jose Marmolejos walked before being replaced by pinch-runner Dylan Moore, who stole second. After a walk to Phillip Ervin, Lyles was lifted for left-hander Brett Martin. Shed Long Jr. greeted Martin with a run-scoring single to right field to make it 4-2.

Guzman homered with one out in the ninth off Hirano, a blast to right field that just missed reaching the Hit it Here Cafe on the third deck at T-Mobile Park.
