J. D. Martinez Jersey , Texas (AP) — .Odor’s two-run single capped a five-run outburst in the second inning off recently acquired Odrisamer Despaigne, the 14th starting pitcher used by Los Angeles this season, and the Rangers went on to a 6-4 win on Friday night.“Hopefully we keep doing what we’re doing right now,” said Nomar Mazara, whose leadoff single started the second.“You’ve got to credit the hitters in the lineup, the job that they’re doing,” manager Jeff Banister said. “We’re constantly talking the message of grinding at-bats out, be able to keep the ball in the middle of the field, the at-bats to draw walks

It’s fun to watch him when I’m playing the outfield,” Mazara said. “His pitches move a lot.” Andrelton Simmons hit a two-run homer , his eighth, that got the Angels within 5-4 in the sixth.Despaigne (2-1), acquired Tuesday from the Miami Marlins in exchange for cash considerations

He obviously had a tough second inning,” manager Mike Scioscia said. “It looks like he lost his release point in the second. His ball-strike ratio was getting a little out of whack and he fought hard to get out of that inning with only five, but the damage was done at that point.”SHORT HOPSCarlos Tocci had his first career three-hit game and scored twice for Texas. ….
