PHILADELPHIA -- Seattle Mariners manager Scott Servais chuckled a bit when asked about managing in the type of game his team played in Tuesday night.

In a game that took 3 hours, 48 minutes and saw a combined 19 runs, 27 hits and six pitchers used on each side, Servais' team came out on top.

Utility man Taylor Motter's RBI double scored Jean Segura in the top of the ninth and the Mariners held on for a 10-9 win over the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park.

"It's a National League game and there's a lot going on," Servais said. "I enjoyed it. I wouldn't want to do it every night that way."

Seattle (16-17) twice came back from four-run deficits to win its third straight and fifth in its last six.

Motter, who replaced Robinson Cano (quad) in the fourth inning, got a splitter in the strike zone from Hector Neris (1-2) and roped it down the left-field line into the corner.

"I don't think the situation gets too big for Taylor," Servais said.

Edwin Diaz notched his seventh save with a clean ninth inning.

Nick Vincent (1-0) picked up the win after getting out of the eighth inning unscathed.

Michael Saunders, Tommy Joseph and Aaron Altherr all homered for the Phillies (13-18). Cano and Ben Gamel went deep for Seattle.

Segura finished 3-for-6 with three runs scored.

Gamel gave the Seattle offense a jolt with four hits, four RBIs and three runs scored. He called it "probably" the best game he's played at any level.

He also made a crucial defensive play in the eighth with the bases loaded and one out. Phillies slugger Maikel Franco hit a fly ball Gamel's way in right field and Gamel, with his momentum coming forward, delivered a strike to home plate to cut down Daniel Nava trying to tag up.

"I had a lot of momentum, I was playing pretty deep so I had a while," Gamel said. "I had some time to get behind it and collect myself. I knew I was pretty shallow so if I made a good throw I knew I had a good shot of getting him out."

The Phillies used a five-run fourth to turn a 5-4 deficit into a 9-5 lead. They sent 11 batters to the plate in the half inning, which took 25 minutes to complete. Freddy Galvis started the fun with a run-scoring double. He came in to score on a Ty Kelly sacrifice fly before the big blow of the inning, Altherr's three-run home run, his fifth of the season.

Philadelphia held that lead even after Seattle's three-run sixth. Kyle Seager made it 9-6 with a run-scoring single. The Phillies should have been out of the inning still ahead by three, but a Franco error at third base on a Guillermo Heredia grounder allowed another run to score before Nelson Cruz -- pinch hitting -- made it 9-8 with a single.

Seattle tied the game in the seventh on Gamel's RBI double.

Neither starting pitcher, Philadelphia's Jerad Eickhoff or Seattle's Ariel Miranda, had a night to remember.

Eickhoff failed to complete four innings for the first time in his career. He allowed eight hits in 3 2/3 innings. Tuesday was also the first time he registered more walks (three) than strikeouts (two). He's now allowed 14 runs in his last three starts.

"His command was poor," Phillies manager Pete Mackanin said. "I've never seen him like that before."

Miranda had a shorter outing than Eickhoff, lasting 3 1/3 innings after allowing six hits and eight earned runs.

The Phillies scored their first four runs in the bottom of the first inning. Already ahead 1-0 on an Odubel Herrera RBI double, Saunders belted a two-run homer to right field. The next batter, Joseph, also took Miranda deep to stake the Phillies and Eickhoff a 4-0 lead.

Seattle cut into that lead in the third.

Eickhoff got the first two batters of the third inning out before allowing a single to Gamel that set up Cano's two-run homer to cut the lead to 4-2.

The Mariners jumped ahead in the top of the fourth when Gamel, with two men on base, crushed Eickhoff's 3-2 fastball to right for his second homer of the year. Eickhoff's night ended two batters later.

"That was a tough one to lose," Mackanin said. "We had two four-run leads but couldn't hold on."
