Ranger Suarez takes no-hitter into 7th inning as Red Sox top Mariners 6-2
SEATTLE (AP) --- Ranger Suarez carried a no-hitter into the seventh inning and
the Boston Red Sox beat the Seattle Mariners 6-2 on Friday night.
Suarez (3-3) struck out five and walked three in 6 2/3 innings. His no-hit bid
ended with Josh Naylor's one-out double in the seventh.
The 30-year-old lefty earned his first win since April 27 against Toronto.
Caleb Durbin put the Red Sox ahead with a second-inning solo homer, his fifth
of the year. Durbin had his second three-hit game this season, with his first
coming against Tampa Bay on June 10.
Ceddanne Rafaela scored on a wild pitch in the seventh, and Marcelo Mayer drove
in two more runs with a bases-loaded single.
Carlos Narvez added a sacrifice fly before Seattle finally escaped the inning
on a diving catch by Dominic Canzone in right field.
Suarez issued a two-out walk that loaded the bases in the seventh on his final
pitch of the night, but Justin Slaten ended the threat by striking out
pinch-hitter J.P. Crawford to preserve a 5-0 lead.
Mayer added one more insurance run with a ninth-inning RBI double. The Mariners
got on the board thanks to Julio Rodrguez's two-run homer in the ninth.
Seattle starter Bryce Miller (3-1) struck out seven in five innings. He allowed
three hits and one run.
Luis Castillo, who has started in all but three of his 258 career appearances,
gave up five runs in four innings of relief as the Mariners revived their
"piggyback" rotation.
