SEATTLE (AP) — Robbie Ray tossed seven dominant innings, Dylan Moore and Ty France homered and the Seattle Mariners beat the Guardians 4-0.
Seattle took three of four from Cleveland in a potential postseason preview.
The Guardians’ lead in the AL Central was trimmed to two games over Minnesota, which completed a sweep at home against San Francisco.
All four games were tight and well-pitched, and the Mariners squeezed out just enough offense to earn a series victory.
The teams will run it back with a three-game series in Cleveland next weekend and perhaps again in October.
Ray scattered three hits, struck out seven and walked none.
Moore hit a three-run homer off Cleveland starter Aaron Civale.
