ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - Mark DeRosa figures he's just got the good fortune of batting behind so many quality hitters in the Texas Rangers lineup. Except they wouldn't be scoring as much without the utility player turned everyday right fielder.
DeRosa went 3-for-4 with his second six-RBI game this week, helping the Rangers take full advantage of Seattle's early erratic pitching and fielding in a 14-7 victory over the Mariners on Friday night.
"The credit has to go to the guys coming up ahead of me," DeRosa said. "It seems like I'm coming up every time with the bases loaded or two guys in scoring position. I'm trying not to really think about it. I just want to bear down and have good at-bats."
