Mariners Outlast Cardinals 11-9 in Game that Featured 8 Home Runs

On Friday, Josh Naylor powered the Seattle Mariners to a 3-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium, hitting a tiebreaking home run and stealing a base before 31,304 fans.
After playing 13 games in 13 days during which they went 7-6, the Mariners had an off-day Thursday, providing rest for relievers before this Midwest road trip opener.
Pitcher George Kirby threw six-plus innings allowing two runs, while Naylor hit a 418-foot homer and stole second base, remaining perfect in 23 stolen-base attempts. Manager Dan Wilson said, "This is this is how he plays."
Seattle snapped its eight-game road losing streak with the win, while the Cardinals suffered their first one-run loss of the season after winning their previous five narrow decisions.
Saturday's pitching matchup features Mariners right-hander Bryan Woo and Cardinals left-hander Matthew Liberatore, with Woo coming off a 5-2 victory against the Texas Rangers.
