(AP Photo/John Froschauer) SEATTLE (AP) — J.P. Crawford hit a grand slam, Emerson Hancock tossed seven scoreless innings and the Seattle Mariners beat the Cleveland Guardians 6-0 on Sunday to complete a sweep. After an RBI single by Miles Mastrobuoni with one out in the second inning gave the Mariners an early advantage, Crawford opened up the floodgates while the bases were still loaded. He turned on a hanging slider from Luis Ortiz (3-8) and cranked a home run to right field for the fourth grand slam of his major league career. Advertisement Mastrobuoni's RBI single alone would have been sufficient, though, for Hancock (3-2). The young right-hander turned in easily the best start of his major league career, yielding only two hits — both of them singles — while walking one batter and striking out four. Hancock was extremely efficient, needing only 85 pitches to make it through seven innings. Relievers Casey Legumina and Eduard Bazardo then followed Hancock to complete the combined shutout, which was just the Mariners' second of the season. They also blanked the Miami Marlins on April 26. Key moment Things went south for Ortiz after he issued a leadoff walk to Randy Arozarena in the second inning. He also walked outfielder Dominic Canzone before Crawford's grand slam gave the Mariners a lead they would not look back from. Advertisement Key stat Since 2023, Crawford is hitting .593 with 42 RBIs when the bases are loaded. He is a career .400 hitter in such situations. Up next Seattle right-hander Logan Gilbert (1-1, 2.37) will return from the injured list and start for the Mariners on Monday against the Red Sox, who will send out right-hander Lucas Giolito (2-1, 5.45). The Guardians travel to San Francisco for a series-opener on Tuesday. ___ AP MLB:

Polanco's RBI single in 9th inning secures Mariners' 4-3 win over Guardians
SEATTLE (AP) — Jorge Polanco hit a walk-off RBI single in the ninth inning and the Seattle Mariners beat the Cleveland Guardians 4-3 on Saturday night. With one out and the bases loaded, Polanco smacked a single up the middle off Guardians closer Emmanuel Clase (4-1), who blew a save opportunity earlier in the frame when he threw a wild pitch that allowed Dylan Moore to score and tie the game at 3-all. The Mariners jumped to an early lead by plating a pair of runs in the second off Cleveland starter Tanner Bibee. Cal Raleigh hit an RBI double to left and Polanco added a sacrifice fly. Bibee gave up two runs and four hits in five innings. But the Guardians scored the game's next three runs, including a solo home run by José Ramírez in the fifth, which increased his career-long on-base streak to 39 games, the longest active on-base streak in the majors. Those offensive contributions weren't enough to keep the Mariners from coming back, though, and Jackson Kowar (1-0) from earning his first victory of the season with a perfect ninth. Key moment Dominic Canzone led off the bottom of the ninth with a single, and pinch runner Dylan Moore stole second base. Moore advanced to third on a textbook sacrifice bunt by Cole Young, then Moore scored with ease on Clase's wild pitch. Key stat Seattle starter George Kirby's streak of 68 consecutive starts walking two or few batters was snapped on Saturday with three walks. It is the third-longest streak in major league history, trailing only right-handers Carlos Silva and Cy Young. Up next RHP Emerson Hancock (2-2, 5.04 ERA) will start for the Mariners on Sunday. RHP Luis Ortiz (3-7, 4.26) will start for the Guardians in the final game of the three-game set. ___ AP MLB:

(AP Photo/Stephen Brashear) SEATTLE (AP) — Dominic Canzone hit a two-run single in the seventh inning and the Seattle Mariners beat the Cleveland Guardians 7-2 on Friday night to move back to .500. Canzone, who was recalled from Triple-A Tacoma on June 9, smacked a base hit through the right side of the infield off left-hander Tim Herrin (4-2) to score two during a four-run inning for the Mariners. Randy Arozarena broke a 2-2 tie with an RBI single, and rookie Cole Young brought home another run two batters after Canzone's hit with a double to left field. Advertisement Seattle starter Luis Castillo gave up two runs and three hits in six innings — with both Cleveland runs coming on consecutive solo home runs by Nolan Jones and Steven Kwan in the third inning. Rowdy Tellez had a solo homer in the fourth inning to get the Mariners on the scoreboard, and Jorge Polanco added one in the eighth to cap the scoring. Carlos Vargas (2-5) pitched a scoreless seventh to pick up the win, and Matt Brash gave up one hit in the eighth, and Eduard Bazardo finished up as the Mariners got their fifth win in 18 games. Key moment In the bottom of the fifth inning, Tellez – who homered earlier in the game – rifled a line drive up the middle off Guardians reliever Cade Smith's forehead. Smith stayed in the game, though, and completed a scoreless inning. Advertisement Key stat With a walk in the sixth inning, Cleveland's Jose Ramirez extended his MLB-best on-base streak to 38 games. It's the longest stretch by an American League player this season, and second in MLB only to the Philadelphia Phillies' Kyle Schwarber (47_. Up next Mariners RHP George Kirby (1-3, 6.53 ERA) will start for on Saturday against Guardians RHP Tanner Bibee (4-6, 3.81). ___ AP MLB:
