ARLINGTON, TEXAS - JUNE 02: Jon Gray #22 of the Texas Rangers throws a pitch in the first inning against the Seattle Mariners at Globe Life Field on June 02, 2023 in Arlington, Texas.
Castillo limited the Rangers to one run over seven innings with six strikeouts and one walk. Texas entered averaging an MLB-best 6.29 runs per game and had scored 11 runs in each of its previous two home games - though those were before a 6-3 trip with series wins in Pittsburgh, Baltimore and Detroit.
Grant Anderson, who made his big league debut Tuesday for Texas with seven strikeouts over 2 2/3 innings at Detroit, worked a scoreless eighth with one strikeout. Will Smith worked a perfect ninth for his 10th save in 11 chances, wrapping up the Rangers' sixth shutout. Castillo had thrown 12 scoreless innings over his last two outings and extended that streak to 17 before Texas got to him in the sixth.
That same inning ended when No. 9 batter José Caballero was hit by a pitch, and then Gray picked off the rookie at first.

He felt discomfort during his last start Sunday and in a bullpen session this week.

He wasn't in the lineup for his first game back.Right-hander Bryan Woo will make his big league debut for the Mariners, pitching in the spot of Gonzales. The 23-year-old Woo, a sixth-round draft pick in 2021, was 3-2 with a 2.33 ERA and 32 strikeouts in five starts for Double-A Arkansas. Texas lefty Andrew Heaney is 2-0 with a 0.95 ERA his last three starts.
