Braves' Late Rally Not Enough to Overcome Mariners at T-Mobile Park

The Atlanta Braves, with a record of 19-9, faced off against the Seattle Mariners, who held a record of 17-13, in a closely contested game that ended with a final score of 3-2 in favor of the Mariners. Despite both teams securing seven hits each and maintaining error-free performances for most of the game, it was the Mariners who capitalized on their opportunities to secure the win.

The Braves struggled to get their offense going until the eighth inning when they managed to put two runs on the board. Prior to this late surge, Atlanta had scattered hits across several innings but failed to convert these into runs due to strong defensive plays by Seattle and missed opportunities with runners in scoring position. The Braves finished the game with an overall batting average of .206 and were only able to convert three out of eight chances with runners in scoring position.

On the pitching side, Atlanta's bullpen showed strength by not allowing any runs during their time on the mound. The bullpen pitchers faced 11 batters and maintained an impressive ERA of 0.0 while striking out four batters over three innings pitched. However, it was not enough as Reynaldo López took his first loss of the season after giving up three earned runs over five innings.

For Seattle, Luis Castillo claimed his third win thanks to a solid pitching performance that kept Braves hitters at bay for most of the game. Andrés Muñoz secured his fifth save despite previous challenges this season. The Mariners' offense was timely and efficient in early innings which ultimately set them up for victory despite committing one error during play.
