Arozarena, Mariners rally past Reds for win in 10 innings
CINCINNATI (AP) — Randy Arozarena hit a game-tying home run in the ninth inning then added a two-run double during a four-run 10th and the Seattle Mariners rallied past the Cincinnati Reds 11-7 on Thursday.
In the 10th, designated runner Dylan Moore advanced to third on a fielding error by pitcher Graham Ashcraft then scored on J.P. Crawford's infield single to put Seattle ahead 8-7.
Jake Fraley's grand slam off Eduard Bazardo put the Reds ahead 7-5 in the eighth. It was his second career grand slam, first since June 5, 2021, against the Los Angeles Angels while a member of the Mariners.
Austin Hays' two-run homer off Emerson Hancock in the first put the Reds ahead 2-0. It was his second homer since coming off the injured list to make his Reds debut on Tuesday.
Luke Raley tied the score 2-2 with a two-run homer off Brady Singer in the fourth. Singer allowed four runs, two earned, in 4 1/3 innings.
The Mariners' scheduled starter, right-hander Bryan Woo, was pushed back to Friday. Hancock was recalled from Triple-A Tacoma to start Thursday.
