The Texas Rangers are back on top of the AL West after an 8-5 win in the team’s opener over the Seattle Mariners, and a loss by the Houston Astros.
Dunning gave up four runs over 5 1/3 innings, with two strikeouts and two walks. The Rangers scored six runs on six hits in 4 1/3 innings against Miller.
The Rangers, who won their third game in a row since a 10-20 stretch that had knocked them out of the division lead, extended their lead to 8-0 in fifth when facing Miller and two relievers. Texas then used three pitchers in the top of the sixth. But Andrew Heaney, the second reliever, needed only one pitch to get an inning-ending groundout after Chris Stratton had given up a bases-loaded walk to No. 9 batter Josh Rojas.
