Polanco homers twice to help the Mariners rout the Marlins, 14-0
SEATTLE (AP) --- Julio Rodriguez and Jorge Polanco led off with back-to-back
home runs in the Seattle Mariners' six-run first inning and Polonco connected
again in the fourth in a 14-0 victory over the Miami Marlins on Saturday night.
Right-hander Luis Castillo (3-2) allowed just one hit over six innings. He had
five strikeouts and walked two.
Rodriguez homered off Connor Gillispie's first pitch, a 417-foot shot that hit
foul pole in left. Polanco homered on the third pitch.
After Gillispie (0-3) loaded the bases with just one out, rookie Ben Williamson
and Miles Mastrobuoni hit two-run doubles to make it 6-0.
Seattle added another run the second on Luke Raley's sacrifice fly. Gillispie
went two innings, allowing seven runs on six hits.
Polanco added his seventh home run of the season in a two-run fourth. Rowdy
Tellez was hit by a pitch in the left hand with the bases loaded to make it
10-0.
Williams added an RBI single in the sixth and pinch-hitter Mitch Garver had a
two-run home run in the seventh. Mastrobuoni hit an RBI single in the eighth.
Earlier in the day the Mariners placed opening-day starter Logan Gilbert on the
15-day injured list because of strained right elbow flexor. The All-Star
right-hander left Friday night's 8-4 loss to Miami after three hitless innings.
