The Seattle Mariners secured a dramatic win in their playoff chase as Leo Rivas launched his first career walk-off home run to complete a three-game sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals. His clutch swing extended Seattle’s win streak to five and kept the Mariners firmly in the 2025 American League playoff race.
Rivas ambushed the first pitch he saw in the bottom of the 10th, sending it just inside the right-field foul pole for a two-run blast. It was only his second home run of the season, but came at the perfect time. The walk-off win pushed the Mariners to 78-68, just 1.5 games behind the Houston Astros in the AL West and still holding the final Wild Card spot over the Texas Rangers, who trail Seattle by 1.5 games.
