SEATTLE (AP) — Emerson Hancock and the Mariners bullpen extended Seattle’s scoreless streak to 24 innings and Mitch Garver hit a two-run homer in a 4-0 win over the struggling Toronto Blue Jays on Sunday.
Hancock (6-4) gave up two hits and two walks while striking out five over seven innings.
He followed Logan Gilbert on Saturday to became Seattle’s first starting pitchers with consecutive outings of seven shutout innings since Bryan Woo and Bryce Miller in 2024. Over the weekend, the Hancock and Gilbert duo combined for 14 1/3 innings, no runs, three hits and 12 strikeouts.
Gabe Speier and Andrés Muñoz each threw an inning of relief for Seattle.
