BALTIMORE -- After Baltimore left-hander Wei-Yin Chen put together another dominant performance Friday against Seattle, his thoughts were with his family and friends thousands of miles away in his native Taiwan. A deadly gas explosion in Kaohsiung reportedly killed at least 25 people and injured close to 300. None of Chens family were injured but he expressed concern for those affected by the tragedy. On the mound, Chen was fully focused as he won his fifth consecutive start and had a season-high eight strikeouts to lead the Baltimore Orioles to a 2-1 victory over the Mariners. "Unfortunately back in my hometown there was a horrible accident," Chen said. "So today this win I would like to give out to my home people and I would like to send out my best wishes to them and hope everybody is all right there." Baltimore has won nine of its past 11 games and remained atop the AL League East. An RBI single by Manny Machado in the third, snapped the Orioles scoreless streak at 19 innings. Chen (12-3) allowed one run and five hits with one walk over 7 1-3 innings. Andrew Miller, acquired from Boston on Thursday, pitched a scoreless eighth in his debut for the Orioles (61-47). Left-hander Zach Britton picked up his 22nd save. The Orioles improved to 18-2 when Chen goes seven or more innings. "If you get seven innings out of your starter, youre going to win your share of games," Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. "Shortens up a lot of things in the bullpen and really allows you to put people in situations that they prosper in. But regardless of the analysis of the game, it starts and most of it is with Wei-Yin. Hes really solid for us here lately in a time of need, obviously standings-wise." Robinson Cano had two hits for the Mariners and is 115 for 317 (.363) lifetime at Camden Yards. "Hes tough," Cano said about Chen. "He threw everything for a strike. Hes not a guy that is just going to give you anything." Mariners left-hander Roenis Elias (8-9) allowed two runs and seven hits with seven strikeoutts and one walk over 5 2-3 innings.

That snapped a streak of 11 consecutive scoreless innings by Chen against Seattle. In the sixth, Machado led off with a double and Hardy drove him in with a two-out single for a 2-1 lead. "Both pitchers really good," Hardy said. "I think Chen threw the ball great. Elias threw the ball really well, and then our bullpen came in and shut them down and luckily we got a couple big hits." Seattle fell to 5-37 when trailing after seven innings. "They played a better game than we did," Seattle manager Lloyd McClendon said. "It was a hard-fought game. It was one of those games where they beat you. We didnt lose." TRAINERS ROOM Orioles: Right-hander Ubaldo Jimenez will make a rehab start for Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday. He is then expected to rejoin the Orioles when they travel to Toronto for a three-game series beginning Tuesday.
