SEATTLE (AP) --- Bryan Woo struck out nine over eight innings in his longest
outing of the season, and Cal Raleigh and J.P. Crawford hit back-to-back RBI
singles in the fourth inning to lead the Seattle Mariners to a 2-0 victory over
the Athletics on Sunday.
Woo (11-9) gave up one hit and walked two in his only eight-inning start of
2026. He retired the first nine batters of the game before Henry Bolte singled
to lead off the fourth inning. Woo didn't give up a hit the rest of the way. He
threw 102 pitches, 73 for strikes.
Woo got all the run support he'd need in the fourth, when the Mariners strung
together five consecutive singles off A's starter Gage Jump (6-9). Dominic
Canzone, Julio Rodrguez, Raleigh, Crawford and Josh Naylor recorded base hits,
with Canzone and Rodrguez coming around to score.
Mariners closer Andrs Muoz pitched a perfect ninth for his 25th save of the
season.
Jump, who took the loss, finished off the inning by striking out three batters
in a row, and A's reliever Seth Johnson struck out the next four Mariners into
the sixth inning for a total of seven consecutive Seattle batters retired by
strikeout. Jump allowedtwo runs on six hits in four innings with seven
strikeouts and no walks.
Mariners second baseman Michael Arroyo, a 21-year-old prospect who was called
up from Triple-A Tacoma before the game, went 0 for 3 in his MLB debut before
being pulled for a defensive replacement.
Up next
Athletics LHP Jacob Lopez (6-4, 4.71 ERA) will face visiting Toronto and Blue
Jays RHP Dylan Cease (10-5, 2.25) on Monday.
The Mariners have an off day before beginning a home series against the Texas
Rangers on Tuesday.
