The game was marked by intense pitching and strategic plays from both teams. The Mariners' offense struggled throughout, managing only five hits and scoring their lone run in the sixth inning.

Mitchell Garver stood out for the Mariners with a perfect batting average of 1.000 after hitting successfully in his only at-bat of the game. Caleb Raleigh also contributed with one hit and scored the team's sole run, showcasing resilience despite facing strong opposition pitching.


On defense, several Mariners players maintained flawless fielding percentages including Tyler France and J.P. Crawford among others; however, this defensive solidity wasn't enough to secure victory against an aggressive Orioles lineup that capitalized on every opportunity presented during key moments of play.
