Jose Lopez hit a solo home run in the eighth inning, leading Seattle past Tampa Bay at Tropicana Field on Tuesday. Mariners reliever Shawn Kelley replaced starter Ryan and allowed an RBI single by B.J. Upton, but avoided more damage.
Smith pitched well but was worn down by patient Tampa Bay hitting, allowing four walks and six hits in five-plus innings. He also allowed three earned runs, marking his sixth consecutive start. Seattle's offense couldn't get too much going against Rays starter Jeff Niemann, who allowed four hits and three runs.
