SEATTLE (AP) – Colton Cowser homered in his first game since\u00a0being activated from the 60-day injured list\u00a0as the Baltimore Orioles beat the Seattle Mariners 5-1 on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n

Cowser, who hadn\u00b4t played in a major league game since March 30 due to a broken left thumb,\u00a0cranked a solo shot to left field in the sixth inning for his second home run. It was Cowser\u00b4s first home run since March 29, and came shortly after Mariners right-hander George Kirby (0-3)\u00a0exited after taking a line drive off his face.<\/p>\n

The Orioles tagged Kirby for two runs, one in the first inning on a sacrifice fly by Ram\u00f3n Ur\u00edas and another in the fifth inning on an RBI single by Ryan O\u00b4Hearn. Baltimore added two more run in the ninth inning.<\/p>\n

Orioles right-hander Tomoyuki Sugano (5-3), meanwhile, was superb. The 35-year-old rookie yielded just one run across seven innings, with the lone blemish being a solo home run by Seattle first baseman Rowdy Tellez.<\/p>\n

The Mariners struggled against the Orioles\u00b4 bullpen before dropping their 27th game of the season.<\/p>\n

With two outs in the fifth inning, Kirby threw a fastball inside to Ur\u00edas, which he promptly ripped right back up the middle. The baseball made contact with Kirby\u00b4s face, and he immediately jogged off the field as blood flowed from his mouth. Kirby did not return for the sixth inning.<\/p>\n

Cowser has reached base safely in all seven career games against Seattle. He\u00b4s gone 8 for 20 against the Mariners with two doubles, three RBIs and seven walks.<\/p>\n

Seattle right-hander Emerson Hancock (2-2, 5.64 ERA) starts Wednesday. Right-hander Cade Povich (1-4, 5.29) will start for the Orioles in the second game of the three-game set.<\/p>\n
