The Seattle Mariners, facing a one-run deficit, had four runners reach base in the final four innings. In a perfect encapsulation of the team's current homestand, the Mariners failed to take advantage of those opportunities and lost 3-2 to the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday at T-Mobile Park.

The Orioles secured the 5-1 victory in Game 1 of this three-game series, with the loss putting Seattle a half game back of Houston in the division standings.

Once again, the Mariners offense was lifeless for much of the night, spoiling the best start of the season from Emerson Hancock in a loss to the Orioles.
