Robles, Moore provide offense, Castillo bests Skubal in Mariners' 3-2 win over Tigers

SEATTLE (AP) — Victor Robles hit a two-RBI double, Dylan Moore homered and the Seattle Mariners beat the Detroit Tigers and American League Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal 3-2 on Wednesday.

Luis Castillo (1-1) went seven innings, giving up two runs on five hits with two walks and five strikeouts. Gabe Spier pitched a 1-2-3 eighth and Andres Munoz survived a rocky ninth for his third save and prevent a Tigers' sweep of the three-game series.

Robles' second-inning drive to the left-center went over the glove of Ryan Kreidler to bring home Moore and J.P. Crawford. Moore hit his first homer of the season for a 3-0 lead in the fourth.

Skubal (0-2) left with two outs in the fifth after giving up six hits and three walks while striking out eight.

The Tigers scored their runs in the fifth on Trey Sweeney's leadoff homer and Riley Greene's RBI ground out after one-out singles by Kriedler and Zach McKinstry.

Munoz created ninth-inning drama after walking the first two batters. After a strikeout, he gave up a broken-bat single to Dillon Dingler to load the bases. Pinch hitter Javy Baez hit a ground ball to third that Moore turned into a force out at home. Munoz struck out McKinstry on three pitches for the final out.

Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh singled in the first inning to reach base safely for a career-best 20 straight games, the second-longest streak behind Dodger Shohei Ohtani, who came into Wednesday at 22 straight.

The Tigers are off Thursday before opening their first homestand with a three-game series against the White Sox. Jack Flaherty (0-0) is scheduled to take the mound against Chicago's Jonathan Cannon (0-0).

Seattle goes to San Francisco for a three-game series that begins Friday. Bryce Miller (0-1) is to face the Giants' Justin Verlander (0-0).

A Ukrainian drone strike killed one person and wounded three others in the Russian city of Voronezh, local officials said Sunday.

A young woman died overnight in a hospital intensive care unit after debris from a drone fell on a house during the attack on Saturday, regional Gov. Alexander Gusev said on Telegram.

Three other people were wounded and more than 10 apartment buildings, private houses and a high school were damaged, he said, adding that air defenses shot down 17 drones over Voronezh. The city is home to just over 1 million people and lies some 250 kilometers (155 miles) from the Ukrainian border.

The attack came the day after Russia bombarded Ukraine with hundreds of drones and dozens of missiles overnight into Friday, killing at least four people in the capital Kyiv, according to Ukrainian officials.

For only the second time in the nearly four-year war, Russia used a powerful new hypersonic missile that struck western Ukraine in a clear warning to Kyiv and NATO.

The intense barrage and the launch of the nuclear-capable Oreshnik missile followed reports of major progress in talks between Ukraine and its allies on how to defend the country from further aggression by Moscow if a U.S.-led peace deal is struck.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Saturday in his nightly address that Ukrainian negotiators “continue to communicate with the American side.”

Chief negotiator Rustem Umerov was in contact with U.S. partners Saturday, he said.

Separately, Ukraine’s General Staff said Russia targeted Ukraine with 154 drones overnight into Sunday and 125 were shot down.
