Game Preview

Following the firing of manager Scott Servais on Thursday, the Seattle Mariners were eager for a fresh start under the new leadership of Dan Wilson. In his managerial debut on Friday night, Wilson inspired the team to rally from a 5-1 deficit against the San Francisco Giants, ultimately winning 6-5 with a walk-off single from rookie Leo Rivas in the bottom of the 10th inning.

The Mariners’ comeback began in the eighth inning, where they strung together six consecutive singles, marking a significant turnaround for the team. This victory also marked their first win since August 3, allowing them to cut their deficit to 4.5 games behind the American League West-leading Houston Astros.

Postgame, several players celebrated Rivas’s walk-off hit and embraced Wilson during the handshake line. Wilson, who holds the record for the most games caught in Mariners history, has been with the organization in various roles since retiring in 2005. His familiarity with the team’s history and player development has brought a renewed sense of hope.

"Seeing the way these guys fought was inspiring," Wilson remarked, praising his team’s effort to stage the comeback. Seattle center fielder Julio Rodriguez highlighted Wilson’s extensive experience and connection to the organization as valuable assets moving forward.

Despite struggling early in the game, the Mariners found success against Giants reliever Tyler Rogers, who failed to secure any outs in the eighth inning. The Giants had earlier benefited from homers by LaMonte Wade Jr., Michael Conforto, and Heliot Ramos.

In Saturday’s matchup, left-handed pitcher Blake Snell (2-3, 3.67 ERA) will take the mound for the Giants, looking to build on his successful August, which includes a no-hitter. The Mariners will counter with right-hander George Kirby (9-9, 3.40 ERA), who will be facing the Giants for the first time in his career. Kirby recently secured a win against the Pirates, showcasing a solid performance with six strikeouts over six innings.
