CLEVELAND — Playing on the road is getting a little easier for the Mariners. They won their third straight game away from Safeco Field, getting solid starting pitching from Ariel Miranda and nice relief work from James Pazos and Edwin Diaz in a 3-1 win over the Indians on Friday.
Miranda pitched 5 1/3 innings, giving up one run on two hits with two walks and seven strikeouts to improve to 2-2 on the season. Pazos was solid in relief and Diaz worked out a four-out save to defeat the reigning American League champs.
The Mariners scratched out three runs against the always tough Carlos Carrasco.
