Randy Arozarena's 10th-inning homer lifts Mariners to 6-5win over Orioles

BALTIMORE (AP) --- Randy Arozarena hit a two-run homer to lead off the 10th
inning and the Seattle Mariners beat the Baltimore Orioles 6-5 on Tuesday night.
Mitch Garver also homered for the AL West-leading Mariners, who have won 11 of
their last 14 games and at 36-32 are tied for a season-high four games over
.500.
Coby Mayo homered during a two-run ninth-inning as Baltimore rallied to tie the
game at 4-4. The Orioles have lost four in a row for the first time since a
five-game skid from April 30 to May 4.
Arozarena hit Rico Garcia's 0-1 slider over the wall in right for his seventh
home run of the season to bring around automatic runner Julio Rodrguez. Garcia
(3-1) had allowed only three runs in 27 innings this season.
Seattle's Nick Davila, called up from Triple-A Tacoma, hit Blaze Alexander and
yielded Leody Taveras' RBI single to open the 10th. Mayo popped out, and third
baseman Patrick Wisdom threw out Alexander at home. Davila then struck out
O'Neill for his first career save.
The Orioles scored two in the ninth against Jos A. Ferrer (1-1). After Mayo's
one-out shot made it 4-3, Jeremiah Jackson singled, moved to third on Tyler
O'Neill's ground-rule double and scored when he beat Ferrer's off-balance throw
off Samuel Basallo's dribbler down the first-base line.
Seattle starter Logan Gilbert allowed Taveras' bases-loaded sacrifice fly in
the first and needed 58 pitches to get through two innings. But the
right-hander retired the last 14 batters he faced and struck out five over six
innings.
Garver ripped Trevor Rogers' fastball to deep left for his third home run in
the fourth inning to make it 3-1.
Rogers allowed three runs and struck out three in 5 2/3 innings.
Up next
Seattle RHP George Kirby (5-5, 4.04 ERA) faces Baltimore RHP Brandon Young
(4-1, 3.47) as the four-game series continues Wednesday.
