Jorge Polanco had two home runs among his three hits and three RBIs and Victor Robles added three hits to lift the visiting Seattle Mariners to a 6-3 win against the reeling Chicago White Sox on Saturday.

Seattle outhit Chicago 12-9 while collecting consecutive home runs for the second time this series, as Cal Raleigh and Polanco went deep against reliever Justin Anderson over the first six pitches of the fifth inning. On Friday, the Mariners had back-to-back-to-back homers in the first inning.

On Saturday, Chicago grabbed a 1-0 lead on Andrew Vaughn's third-inning RBI single but ultimately lost for the 31st time this season when scoring first.

The White Sox have lost 13 straight games, one setback shy of a single-season franchise-record 14-game losing streak that ran from May 22-June 6. Chicago is 53 games below .500.

Chicago continued to struggle in clutch hitting situations, stranding 10 runners while going 1-for-10 with men in scoring position.

A single, double and walk loaded the bases with one out in the second inning, but the White Sox came up empty. Chicago loaded the bases again in the eighth but managed only one run, which came on a wild pitch by Andres Munoz.

Munoz recovered to strike out Luis Robert Jr. and keep the Seattle lead at 6-3. He pitched a perfect ninth for his 17th save of the year.

Collin Snider (1-1) earned the victory with a scoreless fifth.

Brooks Baldwin had three hits for the White Sox. Paul DeJong added two.

Polanco tied the game at 1 with a solo shot in the fourth inning. Dylan Moore and Robles added RBI singles to put the Mariners ahead 3-1. Polanco had an RBI single in the eighth.

Making their club debuts after joining the Mariners in recent trades, left fielder Randy Arozarena had a hit, a run and two strikeouts, while reliever Yimi Garcia struck out two in a perfect seventh.

Both starters pitched four innings. Erick Fedde fell to 7-4 for Chicago after surrendering three runs and six hits to go along with two walks and four strikeouts. Seattle counterpart Bryan Woo allowed an unearned run while scattering four hits and a walk, striking out three.

White Sox right-hander Davis Martin pitched 2 2/3 innings of one-run ball in his first outing since undergoing Tommy John surgery. He last pitched in 2022.
