Nippert pitched seven innings to win as a starter for the first time in nearly three years, and the Rangers beat the Seattle Mariners for only their third 1-0 victory in 15 seasons at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington. Advice: Considering that Texas starters entered with the majors' second-highest ERA (5.33), and that Nippert had allowed 10 runs over 9 1-3 innings in losing his first two starts in place of injured Vicente Padilla, it was certainly an unexpected outcome. Nippert's previous victory as a starter was Sept. 29, 2005, for the Diamondbacks against the Los Angeles Dodgers. He struck out four with no walks against Seattle. |
