Seattle (10-10) at Texas (10-11), 8:05 pm EDT

ARLINGTON, Texas (Ticker) -- Ryan Franklin hopes to get some more offensive support Wednesday when the Seattle Mariners continue their three-game series with the Texas Rangers on Wednesday.

Since being inserted into the rotation in place of the injured Bobby Madritsch, Franklin (1-2, 2.51 ERA) has lasted at least eight innings in each of his three starts. But the righthander has lost his last two outings, receiving just one run of support over that stretch.

Franklin allowed three runs and four hits in eight innings last Thursday, but the Mariners managed only five singles and a double in a 3-0 setback to the Oakland Athletics.

In four starts against the Rangers last season, Franklin was 0-3 with a 9.47 ERA - his highest against any team he faced more than once.

Franklin will be opposed by veteran lefthander Kenny Rogers (0-2, 3.33), who also has not received much help from his offense, receiving three runs or less in three of his four starts, including last Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Tampa Bay Devil Rays.

Adrian Beltre hit a two-run homer and Richie Sexson had three of the Mariners' season-high 15 hits in a 7-4 victory in the series opener on Tuesday.
