Denard Span hit a solo home run in the 10th inning and the Seattle Mariners scored two in the ninth to rally for a 4-3 win over the Diamondbac­ks on Saturday night.

Jake Diekman (0-1) got the first out of the 10th before Span sent a drive onto the pool deck in right-center for the go-ahead run.

Arizona had runners at the corners after a pair of singles off Edwin Diaz in the 10th, but Paul Goldschmid­t got caught in a rundown trying to score on David Peralta’s grounder to third. Diaz got Nick Ahmed and Ketel Marte to fly out, becoming the 17th pitcher in big league history with 50 saves in a season.

Arizona took a 3-1 lead in the seventh on A.J. Pollock’s broken-bat, tworun single, but the Diamondbac­ks couldn’t hold it.

Brad Boxberger walked a batter and gave up a single to put runners at the corners in the ninth. Kyle Seager hit a two-run double just inside the line in right to tie it.

Alex Colome (5-5) worked around Pollock’s two-out single in the ninth and Mitch Haniger led off the game with a long homer for the Mariners.

Eduardo Escobar hit a solo homer for the Diamondbac­ks, who lost their second straight and fell into a tie with Colorado atop the NL West.

Arizona starter Robbie Ray had command problems in his last start as well, walking five while allowing three runs on two hits in 41⁄ innings of a win

3 over San Diego.

The left-hander had trouble almost immediatel­y against the Mariners, watching his second pitch of the night sail deep to center for a home run by Haniger. The Mariners loaded the bases as Ray bounced several curveballs in the dirt, but he struck out Seager Mike Zunino to escape the jam.
