WEST SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Emerson Hancock allowed one hit in six innings, Victor Robles had three hits and the Seattle Mariners beat the Athletics 4-1 on Tuesday night.
Josh Naylor and Mitch Garver each had two hits, and the Mariners had 11 as a team. They were 5-for-10 with runners in scoring position, and stranded eight on base.
Garver appeared to have a two-run double in the second inning, but it was overturned to a ground-rule double that scored one and held Rob Refsnyder at third after the ball was lodged in the outfield wall.
Cole Young's sacrifice fly on the next at-bat got Refsnyder across, and J.P. Crawford added his own sac fly that brought in Garver to cap off a three-run inning.
Julio RodrÃguez tacked on one more run with an RBI single in the fourth inning.
