Story

SEATTLE (AP) — In a commanding display of pitching, Logan Gilbert led the Seattle Mariners to a 4-0 victory against the New York Mets on Saturday night, marking the team's 13th shutout of the season, the best in Major League Baseball. Gilbert, who improved his record to 7-8, delivered seven scoreless innings, striking out six and allowing just one walk. This performance marked his fifth outing of the season with seven or more scoreless innings, the highest in the league. The Mariners capitalized early, scoring three runs in the first inning against Mets starter Sean Manaea, who struggled to find his rhythm. Seattle's offense was fueled by three doubles and a single, setting the tone for the game. Justin Turner later added an important insurance run in the seventh inning with an RBI single that brought home Arozarena, solidifying the Mariners' lead. Manaea, who had recently enjoyed back-to-back starts with seven scoreless innings, faced challenges against Seattle, managing only nine outs in what became his shortest outing since May 2022. The Mets made roster adjustments, activating RHP Reed Garrett from the injured list while optioning LHP Alex Young to Triple-A Syracuse. Looking ahead, the Mets' RHP Luis Severino has struggled in his last two starts, while the Mariners' RHP Luis Castillo continues to seek consistency after allowing three earned runs in his last two outings.
