A day after allowing 16 runs on 15 hits while committing two errors in a sloppy loss, the Mariners picked up their first win of the Cactus League with a clean outing Tuesday. Seattle got two scoreless innings each from Kendall Graveman and Justus Sheffield while to set the tone for a pitching performance that yielded just three hits.
Seattle’s offense generated just enough offense to prevail. Evan White broke a scoreless tie in the top of the seventh, leading off with a double to left-center and scoring when right fielder Cooper Hummel misplayed Jarred Kelenic’s hard single to right.
