J.P. Crawford’s walk helped by a timer infraction sparked a rally that was capped by a three-run homer, and the host Mariners beat the Guardians 3-0.
Kolten Wong was hit by a pitch with one out and France went opposite field with a pitch out of the strike zone and cleared the wall down the right-field line.
But the Seattle reliever got Guardians newcomer Josh Bell to ground out for the save, finishing a game that wrapped up in a brisk 2 hours, 14 minutes. Terry Francona comes out of the dugout to argue with the umpire after relief pitcher James Karinchak was called for a pitch-clock violation during the eighth inning of the Mariners’ 3-0 win over the Guardians.He struck out six and the only runner he allowed came on an infield single that clipped the right-hander.
“I couldn’t really buy a clean inning today but that’s what it’s all about, trying to bend not break, and was able to do that for a couple of innings,” Bieber said.
