Mariners 6, Angels 0: Kyle Seager homered and had three RBIs and Brandon Maurer pitched 6 1/3 shutout innings as host Seattle upended Los Angeles.

Jason Bay had a two-run single and Carlos Peguero homered as the Mariners won for only the third time in 10 games. Maurer (2-3) allowed seven hits and one walk and struck out six.

Peguero led off the Seattle third with a mammoth 451-foot homer to center off Angels starter Garrett Richards (1-1). Seager added a run-scoring single later in the inning and capped the scoring with a booming two-run homer to right off Nick Maronde in the eighth.

The Mariners loaded the bases in the seventh on two walks and a single by Dustin Ackley before Bay delivered a bases-loaded single in the seventh to push Seattle’s lead to 4-0.

Richards allowed five runs and nine hits in seven-plus innings as he continues to fill the rotation spot of injured Jered Weaver.
