Bryan Woo pitched seven strong innings as the Seattle Mariners defeated the visiting San Francisco Giants 4-3 Sunday afternoon to take two of three games in the interleague series.
Woo (6-2), who grew up as a Giants fan in the Bay Area, allowed two runs (one earned) on four hits. The right-hander didn’t walk a batter and struck out seven.
Andres Munoz worked the ninth for his 19th save of the season, striking out Mark Canha with runners on the corners to end the game.
Heliot Ramos and Grant McCray homered for the Giants.
San Francisco scored twice in the top of the first inning. Leadoff hitter Tyler Fitzgerald reached on a throwing error by Josh Rojas and, an out later, Ramos hammered an 0-1 fastball over the Giants’ bullpen in left field.
The Mariners got a run back in the bottom of the inning as leadoff hitter Dylan Moore walked, stole second, advanced to third on a wild pitch and scored on Cal Raleigh’s one-out single to left.
Seattle tied the score in the fifth. Josh Rojas lined a leadoff single to right and was sacrificed to second on a bunt by Leo Rivas. Rojas took third on Moore’s infield single and came home on Julio Rodriguez’s groundout.
The Mariners tallied twice in the sixth off reliever Sean Hjelle (3-4) to take their first lead. Randy Arozarena was hit by a pitch, Justin Turner grounded a single to center and Jorge Polanco was plunked to load the bases. The go-ahead run scored as Mitch Haniger grounded into a double play. Rojas greeted reliever Taylor Rogers with a run-scoring single to center to make it 4-2.
McCray led off the eighth with a homer off the facade of the second deck in right field against Collin Snider.
Giants starter Robbie Ray left in the fourth with tightness in his left hamstring.
Leading 2-1, Ray threw an 0-1 fastball to Turner leading off the bottom of the inning and immediately grabbed the back of his left leg. After consulting with manager Bob Melvin and the Giants’ training staff on the mound, Ray walked slowly to the dugout.
Ray allowed one run on one hit in three-plus innings. The left-hander walked three and fanned four.
