One hit won’t win you many games.
And it didn’t for the Mariners on Friday night at Safeco Field.
Despite getting an outstanding start from Ariel Miranda and brilliant relief work from closer-on-hiatus Edwin Diaz, Seattle mustered just one hit and four base runners on the night and lost to the White Sox, 2-1 in 10 innings.
Reliever Tony Zych gave up the game winning run in the 10th. The problem arose from hitting light-hitting catcher Kevan Smith, who was hitting .130, with the second pitch of the inning.
