CINCINNATI (AP) — Cal Raleigh hit two more homers and Bryce Miller pitched five sharp innings, helping the Seattle Mariners beat the Cincinnati Reds 5-3 on Wednesday night.

Raleigh hit a solo drive from each side of the plate. The catcher has five homers in his last five games, giving him 100 for his career.

Dylan Moore had two hits and scored two runs for the Mariners in their fifth win in six games. Randy Arozarena and J.P. Crawford each had two hits and drove in a run.

Arozarena has reached base safely in 14 consecutive games, including five doubles and 10 RBIs.

Miller (1-2) allowed three hits, struck out eight and walked two. Andrés Muñoz handled the ninth for his seventh save.

Cincinnati had won four in a row and six of seven overall.

Reds right-hander Nick Martinez (0-3) permitted four runs — three earned — and seven hits in 4 2/3 innings.

Cincinnati trailed 5-0 before rallying for three runs in the seventh. Christian Encarnacion-Strand hit a two-run double and scored on Jose Trevino’s single.

But Carlos Vargas escaped the jam when he got Matt McLain to bounce into an inning-ending double play.

Key moment

Raleigh also made a few key defensive plays. He grabbed a soft second-inning grounder by Austin Hays with his bare hand and sent a shovel pass to Rowdy Tellez at first.

Trevino doubled with two outs in the third for Cincinnati’s first hit of the game. He tried to score on TJ Friedl’s single, but he was thrown out on Luke Raley’s dart to Raleigh.

Key stat

It was Raleigh’s fourth career game homering from both sides of the plate.
