But it was not all roses and sunshine for the Mariners of late. In the same game, Seattle relief pitcher Trent Thornton went down with an apparent lower-body injury and had to be carted off the field in the ninth inning, according to Adam Jude of the Seattle Times.

Ahead of the MLB trade deadline, the Seattle Mariners completed a trade with the Arizona Diamondbacks for former Cincinnati Reds third baseman Eugenio Suarez. The D'backs are receiving minor-league first baseman Tyler Locklear and right-handed pitching prospects Hunter Cranton and Juan Burgos.
