BOX SCORE SCOREBOARD

Bryan Woo allowed just one hit over six scoreless innings as the Seattle Mariners defeated the visiting Atlanta Braves 3-1 Wednesday afternoon.

Julio Rodriguez hit a solo home run for the Mariners.

The Braves, who have an MLB-leading 26-12 record, suffered their first series loss of the season by dropping two of three games at T-Mobile Park.

The only hit Woo (2-2) gave up was a two-out single to right by Mauricio Dubon in the fourth inning. The right-hander walked two and matched his season-high with nine strikeouts set in his opening start March 28 against Cleveland.


With Mariners closer Andres Munoz having worked the previous two nights, offseason acquisition Jose A. Ferrer was called on to convert the save. The lefty worked a 1-2-3 ninth for his second save of the season.

The Mariners took the lead in the bottom of the third. Jhonny Pereda lined a leadoff single to left and Leo Rivas, the No. 9 batter in the order, doubled to left off Braves starter Martin Perez (2-2). J.P. Crawford drew a walk to load the bases with no outs before Cal Raleigh grounded into a 6-4-3 double play that scored Pereda.

Rodriguez made it 2-0 with one out in the sixth, hammering a 3-1 changeup from Perez 436 feet to left-center field.

The Braves finally got on the scoreboard in the eighth against reliever Eduard Bazardo. Mike Yastrzemski and Sean Murphy opened the inning with line-drive singles to center to put runners on the corners. Yastrzemski scored on pinch-hitter Dominic Smith's sacrifice fly to center. Bazardo picked off pinch-runner Jorge Mateo -- a call reversed thanks to a successful video challenge by the Mariners -- and struck out Ozzie Albies to end the frame.

The Mariners tacked on an insurance run in the bottom of the inning. With one out, Josh Naylor lined a single to center and stole second. Cole Young's two-out double to right made it 3-1.

Perez went 5 2/3 innings and gave up two runs on five hits. The lefty walked one and fanned five.

Braves shortstop Jim Jarvis made his major league debut, going 0 for 2 with a strikeout.
