Downing-USA TODAY Sports Ryan McMahon singled against a pulled-in infield to cap a two-run 10th inning, and the Colorado Rockies beat the Seattle Marines 2-1 in the first game of a split 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 each 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 the fence in left field that was initially ruled a double. A crew chief review determined a fan's glove interfered with Dylan Moore's ability to make a play at the top of the fence and Stallings was called out.
Jorge Polanco started the 10th on second and scored on J.P. Crawford's single to right field off of 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 liner to right. It was the Rockies first run in 19 1/3 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 ended.
Both starting pitchers worked through jams to hand a scoreless game over to the bullpen. Seattle starter George Kirby allowed five hits 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 in the third when Stallings led off with a double, went to third with one out 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 to first to third on Rodriguez's infield single.
Rodriguez was then caught stealing at second by reliever Jake Bird.
