- J.P. Crawford tied a career high with four hits, Julio Rodríguez was 3 for 5 with homer and the Seattle Mariners beat the Los Angeles Angels 6-2 on Saturday night despite Shohei Ohtani going deep for the third time in five games.
Eugenio Suárez also had three hits as the Mariners set a season high with 16 hits and snapped the Angels' five-game winning streak.
"A really good night offensively. A lot of good at-bats deep in counts and guys grinding to get hits," manager Scott Servais said. "That's the kind of process you want to see with the swing decisions. We hit a lot of balls up the middle the other way. We stayed to the big part of the field." Ohtani is tied for third in the majors with 18 home runs. He has gone 12 for 28 during a seven-game hitting streak.
"I mean, this is as good a place as I've seen him locked in," Angels manager Phil Nevin said. "The home run gets us right back in the game as it did last night. A big at-bat there." It is the third time in his seven years in the majors that Crawford has had four hits. It also came at a good time after he was mired in a 1-for-17 slump in his last five games. Suárez also was struggling, with only two hits in 22 at-bats during the first six games of the trip.
