HOUSTON — For the second consecutive game, the Mariners lost in walk-off fashion to the Astros. Both in extra innings. And both times Yuli Gurriel drove in the game-winning run.
Tim Beckham, Domingo Santana and Daniel Vogelbach homered for Seattle. But it wasn’t enough.
Gurriel doubled in Michael Brantley from second in the 10th inning off Roenis Elias gave the Astros a 6-5 win on Saturday night at Minute Maid Park.
The Mariners came back from a three-run second-inning deficit but couldn’t take the lead.
The Mariners are 1-8 versus the Astros this season, despite only being outscored 48-43.
