Raleigh's pinch-hit single in 9th inning sends Mariners past Athletics 5-3
WEST SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) --- Pinch-hitter Cal Raleigh put Seattle ahead
with a two-run single in the ninth inning, Julio Rodrguez went 3 for 4 with a
solo home run and the Mariners beat the Athletics 5-3 on Tuesday night.
With the Mariners trailing by one, Jorge Polanco drew a one-out walk from
reliever Tyler Ferguson (0-1) in the ninth. Rodrguez followed with a single
and Randy Arozarena was hit by a pitch to load the bases.
Raleigh's single to right field gave Seattle a 4-3 lead, and Dylan Moore added
a sacrifice fly.
Carlos Vargas got three outs for his first major league save, retiring
pinch-hitter Seth Brown with two on to end it.
Collin Snider (1-0) gave up a go-ahead single to Miguel Andujar in the eighth
but prevented further damage.
Seattle is 17--6 since April 9, the best record in the big leagues during that
span.
J.P. Crawford singled in the fifth to extend the longest active hitting streak
in the majors to a career-best 14 games.
