St. Petersburg, FL (SportsNetwork.com) - Endy Chavez's two-out single broke a
scoreless tie and started a five-run ninth inning that helped the Seattle
Mariners beat the Tampa Bay Rays,
5-
0, in the rubber match of a three-game
series at Tropicana Field on Sunday.
</P>
<P>
Brad Miller smacked a two-out triple into the right-field corner on an
0-
2
slider from Grant Balfour (
0-
2). After a Willie Bloomquist walk, Chavez's
sharp grounder on another
0-
2 pitch went under the glove of diving shortstop
Yunel Escobar. James Jones then tripled over the head of right fielder
Kevin Kiermaier, who was playing shallow, to make it a
3-
0 advantage.
</P>
<P>
Robinson Cano was walked on four pitches before Kyle Seager's two-run double
to right increased the cushion to five for the Mariners, winners in seven of
their last eight contests.
</P>
<P>
Yoervis Medina (
3-
1) walked one in the eighth inning to earn the win after
taking over for Seattle starter Felix Hernandez. King Felix struck out a
career-high
15 batters and allowed just four hits in seven innings in a no-
decision.
