ARLINGTON, Texas — Corey Seager helped break open a close game with an RBI single after the star shortstop's two-run error gave Houston an early lead, and the Texas Rangers beat the Astros 7-2. Seager was one of five consecutive Rangers with hits off Houston closer Ryan Pressly in a four-run eighth inning for the World Series champs after Marcus Semien had a tiebreaking single in the sixth. The Rangers beat the Astros at home for a second night in a row after losing all three games at Globe Life Field while still winning last year's seven-game AL Championship Series between the Texas rivals. The Astros dropped five games under .500 just nine games into the season.
