Putting pressure on them early on and giving our pitchers a chance to to get into the ballgame,” Mariners manager Dan Wilson said. “Offense continues to roll, and it’s a good sign and good to see.” The Mariners scored five times in the first to ruin the debut of Angels’ left-hander Samuel Aldegheri, who became the first player born and raised in Italy to pitch in a major league game. Aldegheri (0-1) ended up giving up seven runs — only two earned — on six hits with two walks and three strikeouts in five innings. Aldegheri, called up from Double-A Rocket City on Friday, was acquired last month in the trade that sent closer Carlos Estévez to Philadelphia.
