Nick Tepesch shut out the Mariners for 6 1/3 innings Friday in the Rangers' 1-0 victory. Tepesch didn't get the win for his effort; it went to Steve Tolleson after the Ranger scored their lone run on a groundout in the top of the ninth. Still, it was Tepesch's best effort of the season to date, and he ensured that he'll remain in the rotation for a while longer. He does get the A's next, so AL-only leaguers will probably want him benched.
