Pitchers' Duel Early On 💪

Both teams were locked in a pitchers' duel through the first three innings, with neither side managing to score. Our Mariners' pitchers were in top form, with Bleday, Rooker, and Soderstrom all going down empty-handed in the top of the first inning. On our end, Victor Robles, Julio Rodríguez, and Cal Raleigh couldn't find a way onto base either.

Breakthrough 4th Inning 🚀

The game came to life in the bottom of the 4th inning when Cal Raleigh singled to right, followed by Randy Arozarena hitting a double, moving Raleigh to third. With two outs, Justin Turner came in clutch with a ground-rule double, allowing both Raleigh and Arozarena to score, putting the Mariners up 2-0.

Explosion in the 5th 🎆

We didn't stop there! In the bottom of the 5th inning, J.P. Crawford started us off with a single, followed by Victor Robles doubling to left, bringing Crawford home. Julio Rodríguez’s single extended the lead further, scoring Robles. Then, Cal Raleigh capped off the inning with a towering homer to right field, scoring Rodríguez and making it 6-0. Incredible!

Athletics Fight Back but Fall Short ⚾

The Athletics showed some resilience in the 7th inning, as Tyler Nevin’s double brought in two runs, cutting our lead to 6-2. They made it a bit tense for us in the 9th inning when Darell Hernaiz doubled to left, scoring two more runs and narrowing the gap to 6-4. But Brendan McCann and Max Schuemann couldn't extend the rally, both striking out swinging to close the game. Big ups to our pitchers who held it together under pressure!

Closing Thoughts 👏

An all-around team effort helped secure this win. Special mention to Cal Raleigh for his homer and Justin Turner for his decisive double. Our bullpen showed grit, ensuring we held onto the lead despite the late surge from the Athletics. Let’s keep this momentum going, Mariners!
