SEATTLE (AP) — Luis Castillo retired his first 18 batters, Jarred Kelenic hit an RBI single and the Seattle Mariners beat the skidding Colorado Rockies 1-0 to complete a three-game sweep.
Kelenic extended his hitting streak to a career-best 10 games and played outstanding defense in right field, including a diving catch in the eighth inning that saved a run.
Seattle managed only four hits but won its fourth in a row. Colorado has dropped its last five games.
Castillo struck out eight over the first six innings before Jurickson Profar led off the seventh for the Rockies with a soft single to left-center.
Paul Sewald finished the three-hitter for his fourth save.
