The Marlins added four more runs in the fourth inning for a 6-1 advantage. Marsee touched home on a fielder's choice at second. Otto Lopez followed with a triple into the left-field corner as Leo Jimenez and Hicks crossed the plate. Two batters later, Kyle Stowers knocked in Lopez on a base hit through the right side.
The Mariners cut the deficit to 6-2 in the fifth inning. Randy Arozarena socked a solo homer to center field on a 1-2 count for his 10th home run of the year.
The Fish increased their lead 8-2 on two runs in the bottom of the seventh. Marsee drove in Conine on a single into right field. Jimenez then grounded out to second and Esteury Ruiz touched home.
