 SEATTLE (AP) - Hank Blalock and Richard Hidalgo each hit two-run homers in the ninth inning to bail out the Texas Rangers' beleaguered bullpen and beat the Seattle Mariners 7-6 Saturday.
The Mariners scored four runs in the eighth to take a 6-3 lead, but Eddie Guardado (0-1) failed to close out the potent Texas lineup in the ninth.
With one out, Alfonso Soriano reached on a fielding error by Bret Boone and Blalock followed with his homer. Michael Young singled, and after an out, Hidalgo homered to give Texas a 7-6 lead.
