Fifth Inning

Seventh and Ninth Innings

As play continued into later innings, both teams struggled to maintain momentum until San Diego added another run in each of these innings but couldn’t close down Seattle’s lead effectively enough before time ran out.

Throughout this contest between M’s and Friars alike there were standout performances worth noting: Jorge Polanco shone brightly by contributing significantly towards his team’s success while Bryce Miller pitched diligently despite facing tough opposition from opposing batters like Fernando Tatis Jr., who remained relatively quiet throughout most parts except when he briefly threatened during earlier stages only briefly before being subdued again later down lineups rotation cycle once more thereafter ultimately leading up towards eventual full-time result favoring home side instead overall finally concluding matters altogether conclusively here today indeed!
