Red Sox resume road trip in Seattle
May 14, 2015 - 2:38 PM (SportsNetwork.com) - The Boston Red Sox will resume their 10-game road trip Thursday with the first of four straight games with the Seattle Mariners.The Red Sox are 3-3 on the trip and took two of three meetings with the Oakland Athletics. In Wednesday's 2-0 win in the Bay Area, Wade Miley was sharp in his 6 2/3 innings of work and gave up five hits with one strikeout and four walks.
"He dodged some bullets along the way, but he did an outstanding job for us," Red Sox manager John Farrell said of Miley.
Junichi Tazawa and Koji Uehara went the rest of the way in relief. Uehara picked up his seventh save of the season.
Daniel Nava had an RBI single in the second inning and scored on a throwing error in the eighth for the Red Sox.
Joe Kelly toes the rubber for Boston Thursday and is 1-2 with a 6.35 earned run average in six starts. Kelly has lost back-to-back outings and yielded six runs in 5 2/3 innings of a 7-1 loss at Toronto on Saturday.
Kelly has allowed at least five runs in each of his last four starts and threw five shutout innings in his only appearance against Seattle.
The Mariners had their four-game winning streak cut short with Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the San Diego Padres in the finale of a short two-game set.
Taijuan Walker allowed two runs in six innings to absorb the loss and struck out six batters to just one walk.
"He gave us a chance to win the ball game. He did a nice job," Seattle manager Lloyd McClendon said of Walker. "I thought tonight was very encouraging. He competed well against a tough ball club."
Brad Miller homered and added an RBI double in defeat.
The Mariners are 4-1 on their nine-game homestand and will send Roenis Elias to the mound Thursday. Elias is 0-1 with a 3.86 ERA in three starts and did not record a decision in a 4-3 loss to the LA Angels on May 6, charged with three runs in seven innings with five K's and a walk.
Elias has never faced Boston and the Mariners are 0-3 in his outings.
Seattle went 5-1 against Boston last season.
