Mariners' Victory Highlights Passion and Perseverance! 
What a thrilling night for our Seattle Mariners as we clinched a well-deserved 4-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals. The game started off tense with both teams locked in a defensive battle. Yet, our boys rallied with heart and soul from the fourth inning onwards to take the lead and ultimately secure this victory! 
Dramatic Turnaround in the 6th Inning 
The game took a pivotal turn in the bottom of the 6th inning. Leo Rivas walked to get the momentum going. Randy Arozarena kept up his excellent form with a single, advancing Rivas to third. With the bases loaded, Cal Raleigh smartly walked, paving the way for Julio Rodríguez who delivered a timely single, scoring our first run. Then, it was Josh Naylor’s time to shine with a brilliant double, clearing the bases and putting us 3-2 ahead. Jorge Polanco capped off the explosive inning with a sacrifice fly to bring Naylor home. With this 4-run inning, we turned the tide of the game in our favor! 
Nailing it at the End! 
Our bullpen was instrumental in this victory. Matt Brash, Yohan Ramirez, and Andrés Muñoz combined their efforts across the last few innings to shut down any hopes the Cardinals had of staging a comeback. Despite a minor scare with a wild pitch, Muñoz kept his cool, striking out two and ensuring we walked away triumphant. 
Hats off to Josh Naylor for his clutch performance, and of course, a shoutout to the entire Mariners squad for their resilience and teamwork. Here's to many more victories this season!
