Seattle 7, Minnesota 0

Mariners 7, Twins 0: Felix Hernandez surrendered just one hit in eight shutout innings and Kyle Seager had a home run and four runs batted in as Seattle snapped a seven-game losing streak.

Hernandez (3-1) set Minnesota down in order in every inning except the fourth, when he loaded the bases on a Denard Span single and two walks before escaping the jam when Chris Parmelee flied out. The right-hander struck out nine and retired the last 13 batters he faced before giving way to Steve Delabar, who closed it out with a perfect ninth inning.

Minnesota starter Jason Marquis (2-1) stayed right with Hernandez before a lack of control caught up to him in the sixth inning. After giving up a leadoff single to Dustin Ackley and a one-out walk, his fifth of the night, to Ichiro Suzuki, Marquis lost his shutout bid on a two-out, two-run single by Seager.

Seattle put the game away against three Twins relievers in the seventh, scoring five more runs. Brendan Ryan made it 3-0 on a bases-loaded sacrifice fly, and Suzuki followed by greeting Matt Maloney with a two-run triple to center field. Seager punctuated the inning with a two-run homer off Jeff Gray.

Though undone by his six walks, Marquis limited the Mariners to two runs on just four hits in his six innings.
