Giovanny Urshela collects first hit, HR; Shaun Marcum terrific in 6-0 Indians win over Mariner

Rookie third baseman Giovanny Urshela had himself quite a day and Shaun Marcum delivered his best outing of the season in a 6-0 win for the Indians over the Mariners Thursday at Progressive Field.

Urshela, called up this week, collected the first hit of his career in the third inning, an RBI single to left field. Two innings later, he added his first home run, a solo shot in the fifth.

Marcum threw seven scoreless innings, allowing only two hits and striking out five.

Zach Walters and Brandon Moss added RBI singles and Roberto Perez had a two-RBI single for the Indians, who improved to 28-31 this season.
