Tucker’s 2-run homer in 9th lifts Astros over Mariners 6-4 -
Tucker hit a two-run homer in the ninth inning off reliever Matt Brash, and Houston beat the Seattle Mariners 6-4 on Friday night in the first meeting between the AL West foes this year.
It was the first homer allowed by Brash since moving into a relief role early last season. He had gone 52 games without giving up a home run. For a while that appeared to be the deciding run. But Seattle’s Kolten Wong lined a three-run double in the fifth off Houston starter Cristian Javier, and the Mariners pulled even in the eighth thanks to three consecutive two-out singles.
Javier threw a season-high seven innings and was helped by the chilly 51-degree conditions with long fly balls by Suárez and Julio Rodríguez becoming outs rather than home runs as they likely would have with warmer conditions. Javier struck out eight and allowed three hits.
