Jose Altuve, Astros Suffer 1st Defeat of Season as Mariners Rally for 7-6 Win

The Seattle Mariners are on the board.

After dropping the first two games of the season to the Houston Astros, the Mariners pulled one back Sunday, winning 7-6 in a game that saw multiple lead changes and late drama.

It was a tough day for the starting pitchers, as neither Houston's Zack Greinke nor Seattle's Yusei Kikuchi made it out of the fourth inning. The respective bullpens fared a bit better, slowing down the early slugfest after Yuli Gurriel's RBI single, Josh Reddick's RBI walk and Martin Maldonado's two-RBI single in the bottom of the fourth gave Houston a 5-4 lead.
