SEATTLE (AP) — George Kirby matched his career high with 10 strikeouts over seven innings, and the Seattle Mariners beat the Minnesota Twins 5-0. Teoscar Hernández and Mike Ford homered as Seattle earned a split of the four-game set after it learned starting outfielder Jarred Kelenic will be out for an extended period after breaking a bone in his left foot. The split came thanks to a terrific start on the mound from one of Seattle’s All-Star selections. Kirby scattered four hits, and the 10 strikeouts matched his outing against Miami last month. Hernández hit his 16th homer and Ford hit his 10th.
