Mariners can't hold early lead, lose in 13

The count went to 2-2 before Morrison took two consecutive balls to draw the game-winning walk.

Drew Smyly started for the Rays and allowed two runs in 6 2/3 innings to get a no-decision. He struck out a career-high 12 batters. Nathan Karns started for the Mariners, making his first start against his former team, allowing two runs in five-plus innings to also earn a no-decision.

MOMENTS THAT MATTERED
He's still Cruz'n: Nelson Cruz gave Seattle a 2-0 lead with his 16th homer of the season, a two-run shot to left-center in the fourth on a 1-0 slider from Smyly.
