Cade Gibson (2-0) got three outs in the top half, erasing automatic runner Weston Wilson on his first pitch when he induced a fielder's-choice grounder to shortstop by Cal Raleigh.

Pinch-hitter Heriberto Hernández led off the eighth for the Marlins with a 422-foot homer to left, his 12th of the season, to tie the game at 5-all. Owen Caissie also hit his 12th for Miami, a solo shot in the second.

Marsee drove in a run with a third-inning single on his 2-for-4 night.

Raleigh doubled twice, including a run-scoring two-bagger during the Mariners' three-run eighth inning. Josh Naylor followed with a chopper through the right side to score Randy Arozarena from third. Naylor advanced to second on an interference call against Marlins second baseman Edwards and later scored on a wild pitch by Calvin Faucher to put Seattle ahead 5-4.

Cole Young homered in the fifth for the Mariners, who erased an early 4-0 deficit.

RHP George Kirby (7-7, 3.81 ERA) will start for the Mariners on Wednesday against Marlins RHP Tyler Phillips (1-3, 3.52).

BALTIMORE (AP) — Matthew Boyd pitched six shutout innings, Alex Bregman drove in two runs and the Chicago Cubs beat the Baltimore Orioles 5-2 Tuesday night.

Miguel Amaya scored three times for the Cubs, who have won 11 of 14 to tighten their grip on the top spot in the NL wild card.

Making his third start since being sidelined for seven weeks with a knee injury, Boyd (4-1) allowed three hits, struck out seven and walked two. The left-hander is 2-0 with a 1.72 ERA since returning from the injured list on June 25.

Cubs reliever Ryan Rolison entered in the seventh with a 4-0 lead and promptly gave up two singles and a walk to load the bases. Adley Rutschman delivered a two-out, two-run single off former Oriole Jacob Webb before Gunnar Henderson struck out.

Tyler Ferguson worked a perfect eighth and Trent Thornton got three straight outs for his second save.

Baltimore starter Shane Baz (4-8) retired the first eight batters he faced, but ended up yielding three runs and six hits in six innings.

Bregman hit an RBI single in the third and brought home Amaya with a fielder's choice grounder in the fifth for a 3-0 lead.

Amaya singled and scored on a sacrifice fly by Michael Busch in the seventh, and Dansby Swanson made it 5-2 with an RBI single in the eighth.

The start of the game was delayed for 56 minutes because of the threat of rain. The grounds crew stood poised behind the rolled-up tarp for about an hour, but the rain never came.

Right-hander Colin Rea (6-5, 4.74 ERA) starts for the Cubs on Wednesday night against Baltimore righty Dean Kremer (1-1, 3.18).
