SEATTLE (AP) — George Kirby pitched six solid innings allowing two runs, Teoscar Hernández homered, doubled and scored three times, and the Seattle Mariners beat the St. Louis Cardinals 5-2. Seattle snapped a three-game losing streak behind another excellent start from its young right-hander and a busy day at the plate from its right fielder. Hernández doubled in his first at bat and scored on Jarred Kelenic’s soft single. Hernández followed in the fourth inning with his fourth homer of the season to center field off St. Louis starter Steven Matz. AJ Pollock added a two-run double for Seattle as part of its three-run sixth inning.
