It is advertised as a match-up of marquee pitchers Yu Darvish and Justin Verlander, but tonight’s contest between the Rangers and Tigers is a high-scoring one, ending 10 – 4 in Texas’s favor. The Rangers score 7 runs in the 3rd, capped by a three-run blast by C Geovany Soto that chases Verlander from the game for his shortest outing in nearly three years. For his part, Darvish allows a pair of long balls to Jhonny Peralta and Don Kelly but pitches 8 innings to improve to 7-1 on the year.
