Dominic Canzone\u00a0opened the scoring with\u00a0a two-run triple to center\u00a0in the second, then came around on Miles Mastrobuoni\u2019s sacrifice fly.\u00a0Jhonny Pereda\u00a0singled before\u00a0Emerson ripped Zack Littell\u2019s fastball to deep center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emerson is the fourth Mariner to hit five home runs before his 21st birthday, joining Ken Griffey Jr. (38), Alex Rodriguez (26) and Jos\u00e9 L\u00f3pez (five).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Miller (3-0) allowed Wood\u2019s homer to lead off the fourth and\u00a0Dylan Crews\u2019 blast to open the eighth, but didn\u2019t permit another runner past first base. He struck out seven while yielding four hits and no walks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cole Young\u00a0scored on a wild pitch and\u00a0Luke Raley\u00a0hit a two-run single in the fifth for Seattle.\u00a0Canzone led off the eighth\u00a0with a homer, and\u00a0Josh Naylor\u00a0added a solo shot in the ninth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
