Ryan McMahon singled home a run against a pulled-in infield to cap a two-run 10th inning and the Colorado Rockies beat the Seattle Mariners 2-1 in the first game of a doubleheader in Denver on Sunday.
Ezequiel Tovar had three hits, including an RBI single to tie the game in the 10th, and Jake Cave and Brenton Doyle had two hits apiece for Colorado, which snapped a six-game skid.
The game was scoreless heading into the 10th after a wild finish to the bottom of the ninth. With two outs, Jacob Stallings hit a ball to left that went over the wall for a walk-off home run. However, the crew chief reviewed the play and determined that a fan's glove interfered with left fielder Dylan Moore's ability to make a catch, and Stallings was ruled out.
Jorge Polanco started the 10th on second and scored on J.P. Crawford's single to right field off reliever Justin Lawrence (1-1) to put Seattle ahead.
Stallings started the bottom of the 10th on second, went to third on Charlie Blackmon's infield single and scored on Tovar's hard grounder to right. With the run, the Rockies broke a streak of 19 scoreless innings.
McMahon won it with a single to short.
Julio Rodriguez had two hits and Andres Munoz (1-2) took the loss for the Mariners, who had their four-game winning streak end.
Both starting pitchers worked through jams to hand a scoreless game over to the bullpen. Seattle's George Kirby allowed five hits, one walk and struck out seven in five innings, while Colorado's Cal Quantrill allowed just three hits, walked five and struck out four in six innings.
The Rockies had a chance to score in the third after Stallings led off with a double and went to third on a groundout, but Tovar lined out and McMahon grounded out to end the inning.
The Mariners squandered rallies in the first, second and sixth innings, then ran into outs in the seventh. Crawford walked and was thrown out trying to go from first to third on Rodriguez's infield single.
Rodriguez was then caught stealing at second by reliever Jake Bird.
