Victor Robles and Julio Rodriguez hit two-run homers in the fifth inning as the Seattle Mariners defeated the visiting Tampa Bay Rays 6-2 Wednesday afternoon.

Randy Arozarena added a solo shot in the eighth against his former team as the Mariners improved to 4-2 under new manager Dan Wilson and remained 3 1/2 games behind division-leading Houston in the American League West.
