SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Julio Rodríguez hit a two-run double in a four-run ninth inning against All-Star closer Camilo Doval, and the Seattle Mariners held on to beat the San Francisco Giants 6-5 on Monday night.
J.P. Crawford broke a 2-all tie with a sacrifice fly against Doval. Rodríguez's double made it 5-2, and Teoscar Hernández added an RBI single with two outs as the Mariners handed Doval (2-3) his worst outing in the majors.
The right-hander had never allowed more than three earned runs in a game and had given up a total of eight in 38 prior appearances this season.
Rookie catcher Blake Sabol homered twice and drove in all five runs for the Giants. He launched a three-run shot with two outs in the ninth to bring San Francisco within one. Pinch-hitter Wilmer Flores singled before Paul Sewald struck out Brandon Crawford to end it.
Andrés Muñoz (2-1) struck out two in a perfect eighth.
Coming off a series win at home against Tampa Bay, the Mariners won their third game in a row. The Giants have dropped three straight and five of seven. They are 4-7 since winning 10 straight from June 11-21.
Mike Ford opened the ninth with a single and Doval plunked pinch-hitter Ty France with a pitch, a call that withstood a Giants replay challenge. As Kolten Wong squared to bunt and third baseman J.D. Davis moved toward the plate, pinch-runner Jose Caballero, who already had stolen second base, swiped third.
Wong reached on a fielder’s choice that loaded the bases with nobody out before J.P. Crawford hit a deep fly to right-center, allowing Caballero to score easily. Rodríguez hit his two-run double into the left-field corner, and Hernández capped the outburst with a single to right.
Mariners rookie Bryan Woo, who grew up a Giants fan 8 miles across the bay in Alameda, held San Francisco to two runs in six innings, both scoring on Sabol’s fourth-inning homer.
Woo made his sixth big league start in front of dozens of friends, relatives and former high school teammates from his hometown. He held the Giants to three hits.
Giants starter Logan Webb, coming off his worst start of the season in Toronto, struck out 11 in 6 2/3 innings, one off his career best. Webb lost his shot at a win when he allowed the Mariners to tie it 2-all in the seventh on singles by Wong and J.P. Crawford, and Rodríguez's grounder.
