SEATTLE -- Fernando Rodney gave up the game-winning home run -- a solo gut punch by Logan Forsythe in the ninth in the Mariners' 1-0 loss to the Rays on Friday -- but that was hardly Seattle's only issue leading to a seventh straight loss.
An ongoing lack of offense was capsulized in the bottom of the ninth when Austin Jackson led off with a triple, but wound up stranded at third as Seattle, again, could not capitalize on what scoring opportunities it did have on another frustrating night at Safeco Field.
