Fourth Inning

Seventh Inning


By the seventh inning, Houston was still searching for answers offensively. Despite getting one hit during this period, they couldn't convert it into runs. On defense, however, ‘Stros managed to limit Seattle’s scoring opportunities effectively until this point.


Eighth Inning


The eighth inning proved pivotal for Seattle as they launched an offensive surge that would ultimately decide the game's outcome. Scoring four runs on two hits during this frame allowed them to extend their lead significantly over Houston’s lone run from earlier in play.


Ninth Inning


In what would be their final chance at bat during regulation time (top half), ‘Stros couldn’t muster any more offense despite having players reach base earlier via walks or singles throughout previous innings; thus ending with only one total run scored across nine full frames played out here tonight versus six tallied up overall by Emerald City squad members themselves!
