Luis Castillo allowed one hit over six scoreless innings as the Seattle Mariners defeated the visiting Pittsburgh Pirates 5-0 on Saturday afternoon.
Leadoff hitter J.P. Crawford went 2 for 4 with a double and scored twice as the Mariners won for the fifth time in their past six games.
The only hit Castillo gave up came when Tucupita Marcano lined the first pitch of the game into the gap in left-center field, the ball rolling all the way to the wall for a double. Castillo struck out a season-high 10, issued two bases on balls and hit one batter with a pitch. The Mariners scored three runs in the first inning. Crawford led off by lining a double to right and Ty France hit an RBI double to left. Two outs later, Eugenio Suarez hit a check-swing blooper to shallow right to plate France. Cal Raleigh grounded a single to center and Teoscar Hernandez doubled to left to make it 3-0.
