Adames’ home run off the left-field foul pole highlighted a four-run fourth inning and chased Hancock, a 24-year-old right hander making his fifth-career major league start.
Hancock allowed eight runs on 11 hits with six strikeouts in 3 1/3 innings.
Oliver Dunn and Jake Bauers each went 2 for 4 with an RBI and two runs scored for Milwaukee.
Reliever Collin Snider took a shot off the foot by Sal Frelick in the fourth. He fell flat on the mound as manager Scott Servais and the Mariners’ training staff raced from the dugout. Snider eventually threw a warm-up pitch, but then walked off the field. Tayler Saucedo came on in relief.
