Rookie Harry Ford’s 12th-Inning Sac Fly Lifts Mariners Into AL West Tie

Seattle's September depth paid off with a walk-off that vaulted a surging club into a first-place tie.

Overview

  • Seattle beat the Angels 7-6 in 12 innings on a pinch-hit sacrifice fly by Harry Ford, scoring Jorge Polanco after his game-tying double.
  • The victory was Seattle’s sixth straight and pulled the Mariners even with Houston at 79-68 after the Astros lost earlier in Toronto.
  • Mike Trout tied the game in the fifth with his 399th career homer, ending a 125-plate-appearance drought and extending his dominance in Seattle.
  • Mariners starter Bryce Miller struck out a season-high 11, dominating early before yielding four runs as his velocity and command waned.
  • The Angels exhausted eight pitchers, with Sammy Peralta allowing runs in the 11th and 12th, while rookie Logan Davidson hit his first career homer.
