MARINERS POSTCAST: Seattle Mariners CLINCH SERIES with win vs. Houston Astros
This is the Mariners Post Cast, your instant game reaction for the Seattle Mariners, part of the Locked On podcast network, your team every day. What just happened? What just happened? Okay, so many emotions running through. Um, the the Mariners win the series. They win this game. Victor Robless with catch of the year easily. Oh. Uh, Chris, anything more than that? No. No. Pretty boring game. Um, you like to see a little more excitement. Um, you know, just a a really routine game with a routine fly ball to end it. It’s fun to see. By the way, I was just going to say real quick, Minnie’s going to have to podcast with us for a little bit. Yes, that’s fine. Because the screams that I let out scared the ever loving crap out of her. Thankfully, it didn’t scare the actual crap out of her because, you know, I don’t want to pick that stuff up. Um, but I I I don’t think I can do this, Anders. I don’t think I can handle this. Like, wow. Is that the greatest catch in Seattle Mariners history? That’s the greatest catch in Seattle Mariners history. It’s not the most impressive catch in Seattle Mariners history, but when you consider the situation, when you consider the context, and then when you consider how quickly he gets up with that baseball, by the way, horrible base running mistake from that guy. Where are you going? It’s a two-run game. It’s a two-run game. Why are you not even winning like what? I I I’m I’m super happy. I I’m super happy that he screwed up. This is This is phenomenal. This is so fun. Thank you guys so much for tuning in. I expect us to get even on a Saturday afternoon when there’s a certain football game being played right now, I expect us to have a pretty massive crowd. And I get it because your Seattle Mariners are now two games in front of the Houston Astros and technically technically three three because they own the tiebreaker now no matter what happens tomorrow. Tiebreaker no matter what happens tomorrow. Such a big win. This is a massive win. I think if you drop this one and then go into Sunday needing to win, I feel really iffy about those prospects, especially how today played out. Um, George Kirby was phenomenal. You get some awesome offensive production, great at bats up and down the lineup today. Um, some questionable bullpen decisions. We will definitely get there. Definitely will. But I’m just gonna zoom out for just a second because in my eyes right now, this is officially the changing of the guard in the American League West. I think the Mariners are officially now the big boys. Okay, they and I realize it’s not in the playoffs and you kind of have to beat them into playoffs to do it, but the Houston Astros might not go to the playoffs, guys. No, this might have just been the slaying of the dragon and now you are the big boys. That’s what it feels like to me. And uh that catch at the end just sealed one of the games, one of the best Mariners games I’ve ever watched in terms of just pure adrenaline and and just big moments and everything. So, oh man. Uh let’s start with the start. George Kirby just he was him today. He was him. That’s that’s all I can say. And I talked to Anders a little bit about this over text message um in our group chat that I wanted to bring this up. George Kirby’s statistics are not great. He came into this one with an RA of like 4.4, something along those lines. Definitely not what Seattle Mariners were signing up for to begin the year, right? What George Kirby has done with basically having to reinvent himself in 2025 is incredibly impressive, guys. His arm slot, and Angie Menic was one of the first people on this. Credit to her for talking about this. His arm slot has dropped like three degrees, and that’s a five or six. It’s like, yeah, it’s it’s a huge amount of in any every inch that drops there. And let’s be mature, guys. Um, it’s big. It’s much harder. And especially somebody who relies on throwing strikes as much as George Kirby has in the past, he’s become stuff over command. Yes. Stuff is the reason why that George Kirby has been so freaking good over these last two starts. And I know he doesn’t generate a ton of swings and misses today. seven. He was in command of everything. Everything. Two of the hits shouldn’t have been hits. Just should not have been hits. And I I know. Um it’s just it’s so impressive to see what he’s done. And uh by the way, if the CE Thank you, Agent Michael Scar every Don’t mention it. Don’t mention it. We don’t need it for the audio listeners. Sorry, Zippics. Um the um if the Seattle Mariners play the Houston Astros in the postseason, you’re certainly starting George Kirby. Yeah, that guy that guy dominates the Houston Astros. Dominates Houston. It was a terrific effort. Had no issue pulling him, by the way. Six innings, 100 pitches, up by six runs. You go to the bullpen. That’s absolutely the right call by Daniel Wilson. Talk about some other calls. Yeah, let let’s go through that sequence because I think you said it best about George, he was just awesome tonight. And uh you know, really quick on him before we move on. Um I think this opens up the discussion once again for the playoff rotation. Uh in terms of in terms of a threeman and I think you’re in the moment where I think if you’re pitching at home, it’s Luis Castillo and if you’re pitching on the road, it’s George Kirby. To me, that’s how I would play it at this point. Maybe you play a little matchup base, but hey, we’ll we’ll cross that bridge when we get there. It’s a good obviously going to depend on Brian Woo, right? Like that that’s that’s actually 100% true. Yes. Yeah. Like and for those who missed it, by the way, they announced that he has I believe they said a minor pectoral strain. Yeah. And he’s daytoday. They don’t know if they’re putting him on the yet. We’re all dayto day to be fair. And um I don’t believe the Seattle Mariners when they talk about injuries whatsoever. Yeah. But this is also why being that number two seed is going to be massive. Yep. because you have a chance to get Brian Woo at a much better version of himself at the very least, assuming that this is actually minor. And again, don’t believe anything you ever hear about injuries. Yeah. Uh so let’s let’s talk about uh after George Kirby, he gets through six, pretty dominant. Uh you go to the seventh and honestly I was okay with Vargas uh to start the inning. I put this out on Twitter. I was like, “Hey, you’re up 6-0. He’s a guy that induces a lot of soft contact, get some quick outs, and get just get your nine outs. Now, um the fact that he loaded the bases with the bottom of the order, and then was allowed to face the top of the order with the bases loaded, that’s the biggest issue for me. It wasn’t that you decided to use him in the seventh inning. It was not having anyone ready because it’s not like they could just flip the switch. They had Bazarda warming after he hits Cam Smith to load the bases. he can’t just run right out there right away, especially after pitching for two straight days. The the issue was not having anyone ready when he got those two first guys on. So, um that was my issue. I don’t know how you evaluate that. 100,000%. As boring as it is, completely agree with you because yeah, you’re up six nothing. That’s the time to use your fifth or sixth best reliever, right? And you’re facing the bottom of the order. This was a reminder that Carlos Vargas can’t be a high leverage guy for you, right? Like, and you know, I will point out, as some of you brought up, this was a very Houston homer. A very homer indeed. It’s an out in 27 ballparks. 27 parks. The two two of the three are janky left fields. And then Toronto’s just kind of a little short porch there. Um it’s also a pitch though that you’re asking for a little bit of trouble there. Yeah, you are. 94 on the inner part of the plate and and they put it out. Pñena hits fast balls really well. He does. And I the issue with though is not the homer. It’s what happened before the homer. Right. And this is where my biggest issue was if you are going to have Eduard Bazardo available, which by the way we can talk about. I think it’s a mistake. I thought after throwing that many pitches in that many innings, he was clearly not nearly himself. The fact that he got out of that without giving up a run is crazy. Um, why not have Bazardo get that one out and then you can go to a Hancock Jackson or a Caleb Ferguson or a Brash, right? We got to talk about that, too. I mean, that’s that’s is that confidence in Eduard Bazardo or is that no confidence in Matt Brash? That’s my ultimate question. It’s probably both, but one of them has to be more than the other. one of them and I think it’s actually confidence in Bizardo because of how good he looked and I think Goldmith brought it up against that pocket of of hitters. He looked so good there. My counterpoint to that would be those hitters saw Bazardo yesterday. Yes, it’s really interesting that Matt Brash isn’t used in this. Now, some of that also has to be like, you know what, Mooney’s 100% available now. We know he can’t pitch on Sunday. We need to have Brash for the ninth thing. need tomorrow. But boy oh boy, that a game that should not have been close because you were the better team for overwhelming majority of it ends up being close. On the other side of the spectrum, just real quick, that’s also why you buy build six nothing leads. That’s also why it’s important to tack on when you have these type of leads because a lot of times a grand slam basically eliminates you from having a chance to win, right? A grand slam and they still needed two more runs. So, there’s my shiny optimism from all of that. I mean, and I completely agree with that. Let’s talk about the offense because in at the end of the day, that’s kind of what won you this game is your offense and what they did earlier in the game. So, we’ll get to that after some love to our sponsors here. Uh just a quick thank you to everyone who’s tuning in. We’re the Mariners Postcast. Anderson Hurst, Christopher Crawford to my left.

Anderson Hurst, Christopher Crawford with you. Uh man, this is probably one of the most fun games to break down with you guys that we have done. Uh if you are new though, 648 with us with us in the stream today. Really appreciate all y’all hanging out with us. Uh this is an awesome community. Come and hang out every single day after the Mariners game. We like to think it’s the best place to find a Mariners postgame show. So uh myself, Christopher Crawford like to break down what you just saw. And boy, Chris Crawford, we just saw one of the best Mariner games of the year. Victor Robas an awesome catch. Uh George Kirby just dominant. And but let’s talk about the offense. So like yeah, what can you say? I I’m just gonna open it up to you. What What do you think about the offense today? How’d they look? Really good at bats. Really good at bats for the overwhelming majority of the game. Um boy, that sixth run ends up being huge. And boy, it’s fun to see Blanco get another double even though it was self-inflicted. And I do believe that was Jake Myers who made that. It was same guy who had the base running error. I will tell you there is a little bit of a difference between that type of dive and a dive when Randy makes it. you’re kind of trying to save the game, right, in that situation compared to where Ry’s dive was like in the first inning and it was a no-score game. So, little bit of break there, but it’s still a a benefit for the Seattle Mariners. There’s so many guys who have good days today. Honestly, outside of the very top of the order and the very bottom of the order, and I know Crawford ends up drawing a walk, everybody was good today. Um, Julio, that that walk in the first inning, I think, is massive because it keeps the inning going. He steals second base and then that double from Suarez who looks phenomenal right now. Dare I say back. Dare I say back. He looks so much better swinging the stick right now. I was actually surprised that ball wouldn’t have gone out in any parks. By the way, the double that he hits into center field because maybe somewhere that could have gone out, but nope. Um Josh Naylor had one of the best at bats of the year. By the way, the sexiest thing a person can do is bat flip a bases loaded walk. It is absolutely the number one turnon in any relationship is just bat flip a walk. It is beautiful. It is that was such a good at bat. And oh by the way, there’s a new record holder for the Seattle Mariners. Yeah, let’s talk about that. Cal Raleigh now has 57 home runs. The first time anyone has ever said that about a Seattle Mariner in one season. Just put in perspective how how awesome that is. You can’t you could we could do a 45inute show and we could not put it into perspective, guys. This is such a special thing. I believe that was the first time he’s gone oppo as a right-handed hitter as well. I could be wrong there. Um, but that’s a tough place to go oppo. Right field is not the place where you usually see the ding-dongs in Houston. and just a terrific swing on that bat. And he’s still drawing the walks. He’s still patient. Even in the strikeout in the first inning, he works a three ball count. Y he’s such a special baseball player and he’s the MVP. He’s the MVP. I know Aaron Judge had another monster game today. He’s great. Cal Raleigh is the MVP of the American League. And the Seattle Mariners where they are without this guy real quick because I know I’ll forget it. Goldmith made another great point today about Jorge Palano. The Houston Astros wanted Jorge Palano. They wanted him really bad and the New York Yankees wanted Jorge Palano, but ultimately Seattle upped their offer and he comes back and no one was excited about it and I understand why. He was terrible last year. Where the hell are the Seattle Mariners without Jorge Palano? Where the hell are they? Because Jorge Palano has been such a stabilizing force minus one month. Yeah, one month in this offensive lineup and I I just don’t think you can say enough good things. My unsung hero, by the way, is Julio because of three things. Number one, the walk the hit that also scores a run that puts you up uh six to nothing. Also, on that catch from Robles, and I just watched it again, Julio does the right thing and lets Palano take control of or excuse me, Robles take control of that baseball. Yep. Julio was not going to get to that. There’s not many that he’s not going to get to, but he let the right fielder make that play. And that’s the reason why you end up winning this game because that ball would have dropped. Two runs would have scored. Everyone is sad. I don’t think I would have even shown up, Andrew. I’m just letting you know. I I honestly think I would have made something up about like uh I’ve got gout or something like that and let you uh go solo because I don’t think I could take it. Yeah. But Julio Rodriguez played a fantastic baseball game today. A bunch of people did. Yeah. But that one might get lost in the shuffle from everybody else. Uh I’m gonna go unsung moment and it’s a whole inning. It’s the top of the fifth inning for the Seattle Mariners. Let’s roll through this because it was 3-0 at that point. Uh it’s still kind of hanging in the balance it seemed like. Uh Randy Rosarena grounds out. Cal Raleigh works the walk. Julio singles right after that. Gino strikes out. So you got first and second, two outs. That’s when Jorge hits the single. Uh Cal Raleigh to third. He doesn’t get waved. He actually originally does get waved, but it was a good decision by Neg because then you got the bases loaded for Josh Naylor and he works like you said, probably the at bat of the year just in terms of uh and that’s what chases Valdez gets you up to 40. And then lost in it all is the pinch hit decision by Dan Wilson. love this to go to Dom can zone and singles uh home. What was it? Uh Julio Rodriguez at that point to make it 50. That in my head is what won you this game. Like literally it did too cuz like five runs versus four is what Houston ends up getting. But still that those two runs were so big at that point in the game. So big. So massive. you felt so much more comfortable and that allows, you know, you’re not go the goal is not to give up a grand slam. The most obvious point ever, but like that allows that not to mean as much. Exactly. It drove us nuts when it happened, but it’s still like you’re still winning. You’re still not only winning, you’re winning by two runs. Um the one moment that I would say is just a little bit bigger, but I love that call the the Gabes buyer pitches to Yeah, good call. Good call. Oh my god. Oh my god. And the scream that I let out. For those of you old enough to remember the Howard Dean scream, it was absolutely a Howard Dean. I’m not going to do it now because she’ll get scared again. But it was that’s that’s big boy pitching right there. That is big boy pitching. And you’re going to have to rely on him, I think, tomorrow, too. Gabe Spire’s got to be high leverage for you. I’m glad the Mariners didn’t sign Christian Walker. I get it. I get They wouldn’t have Josh Naylor right now. Well, but you would have probably And you know what? You wouldn’t have Josh Naylor at all because there’s no way they would have been No, that’s my point. Yeah, that’s fair. Yeah, it’s um I still like Christian Walker, but I get what you’re saying. I get what you’re saying entirely. Um and Safe Go would have been a tough place for him, I don’t think. And it’s it’s safe today. When you’re in first place, it’s Safe Go. Well, speaking of Oh, yeah. Anything else to add? Sorry. No, I just wanted to add how nice is it? I want them to win tomorrow. So freaking bad. So freaking bad. I don’t know if I’ve wanted to sweep more in my life. Yeah. How nice is it though that you are in total control no matter what happens tomorrow. Nothing can take away that control. Not a thing. But if you want to kill him, if you want to step on that neck, you win tomorrow. And it’s over. Vince Carter, it’s over. It’s over. It’s done. And I think I think you pointed this out right before we went live. This isn’t just a massive series win for the Mariners. Yes. This is a devastating series loss for the Houston Astros. They are not in a playoff position right now, guys. N the Cleveland Guardians hold the third wild card now. And and they’re in a dog fight just to make the playoffs. And even if they do win tomorrow and if they, you know, go on a heater, if the Mariners are tied with the Astros come the end of the season, the Mariners own the tiebreaker no matter what. This is this is such a huge win. That rollless catch, man. I I just want to go back to that because Oh my god, it’s What are the difference of outcomes if he doesn’t get to that? I I I that’s a two- run. At least a two- run. I I have to think so. And what if that ball gets by him? Yeah. What if that ball gets by him? might be game over. It might be. Well, yeah. I I h it’s just such a clutch play and it’s why Victor Robles has to be in the lineup. Yeah. Why has to be in the lineup that guy shows in right field is just incredible. And he was good offensively today, too. He had a was it one hit or two hits? I can’t remember. But he at least got on base once. He got on base once. Um he he um he swung the bat totally fine for a bottom of the order hitter. bottom of the order hitter. He has been more than adequate with the stick and he saved your banking today. He saved your absolute bacon today. He also had a big sack flight today, too. So, yeah, that’s that’s a good point. Yeah, I forgot about that. I want to say one quick thing before we get out of here. Sure. We I I’ve said this the last like four or five episodes. We’ve been as hard on Dan Wilson as anyone. Sure. Um and even today, like there were some decisions that were not great. the bullpen, the management was a little suspect in some situations. Sure, these guys look ready to flipping play this weekend and they look locked. I keep wanting to swear lock the f in. Like, and that is a huge testament to the manager. I’m gonna I’m gonna I’m gonna rip him when they don’t look ready to play, but when they do, like they do today, they know how big this series is. It and the moment doesn’t look too big for them. That scream by Gabe Spire. That just locked in laser focusness by George Kirby. Julio with a little dialed down like, “Hey, let’s go kind of vibe.” I love it all right now. I love how these guys are playing baseball. There’s no doubt about it. And you know, there’s some people who will say, “Well, how much are you really crediting the manager for grown men being ready to play for the ping?” It matters. It matters, man. It’s It’s hard to The big thing for me is it’s not like I’ve wanted to see this team loose, you know? I don’t want to. That was the big thing for me. You got to have focus. You got to be intense. But you can’t let the moment be too big for you. And you know what? I’ll give some of that credit too to Hollander and Dotto because there’s nobody on this roster that you could even kind of say shrinks in the big moment. Not a single one. And that has a lot to do with the guys that they brought in here. So, it’s credit all around. Everything deserves credit. I’m willing to give credit to everyone but one person. And that one person knows who he is. It’s in spite of him. But Dan Wilson has done a phenomenal job on this road trip. Phenomenal. And he deserves all the credit in the world. And you know, we talk about Cal’s record-breaking home run. He is also a leader that no doubt you need player leaders as well, not just the manager. It goes down the entire pecking order. So doubt I I just want to sing the praises because man, I I was a little bit worried that the guys would come in either a little too loose, kind of trying to be like, hey, it’s just another series. They know it’s not just another series. Uh or a little too like big the moment’s too big for them. They’re like too hyped. You know what I mean? They are playing that line perfectly right now. It’s awesome. It’s just awesome. And oh, it just sets up such a fun last week. Such a fun last week that you know, is there a part of me that wonders how the hell is this going to go wrong? Yeah, of course. That’s We’re Mariners fans. We’re used to it. Being a Seattle Mariner fan, but because of what you did in Kansas City, Yeah. and because of what you’ve done over these last two games, there’ll be no one to blame but ourselves. Not a single thing. And that is a very nice place to be. Yeah. Very nice. Uh Mariners win this one. They win the series. It it it Let’s go get the sweep tomorrow. Let like as you said, let’s stomp on their necks. Let’s end the dynasty. End it. End it. Okay. This you have a chance to do that. Like we said, it’s not just a big uh win for the Mariners. You could literally end the Houston Astros dynasty. So, let’s let’s do that tomorrow. And I feel like they they’re in the right mindset to go do that. Now, it’s nice to know that you don’t exactly have to, right? You’ve already won the series. You did the job that you needed to do. You’re playing with house money tomorrow. Let’s go. Let’s go make the most of it. All right. Last word, Chris Crawford. Uh George Castanza was always my least favorite Seinfeld character, so let’s go beat up on Jason Alexander. All right. Remember, Sunday Night Baseball tomorrow night, guys. We’ll talk to you then. Have a good one. Go Mariners. Massive win. Like the video, subscribe. We’ll talk to you guys tomorrow. See you.
Anders and Chris break down the middle game of the three-game set between the Seattle Mariners and Houston Astros. George Kirby was phenomenal. Big Dumper aka Cal Raleigh passed Ken Griffey Jr. Other players did good things, Carlos Vargas isn’t one of them, but they came up with enough outs for a MASSIVE win to take a two-game lead in the AL West.

Victor "Seattle Superman" Robles!
That was amazing!!!!
Toronto might be in reach 3 back for the #1 seed with seven to go. Refuse to lose.
We're having a great season considering how horrible of a manager Dan Wilson is. Leaving Vargas in to allow for that Grand Slam is malpractice, and Dan has been screwing up ALL SEASON lol. Thank GOD for Victor Robles.
Mariners have been conservative with the rotation since the beginning of the year, and we are seeing the dividends. Pitching looks fresh and the stuff is playing up as opposed to guys losing gas and fading in the stretch. Team has found their identity after the trade deadline, team is playing great ball right now.
That was insane!!!! So glad i got to watch it live!!!
Calm down guys. Yes we won but the Astros have major injuries this year. On paper a healthier team the Astros are better team.
But I’ll take the win any day.
The Robles catch is the defense version of the Cal walkoff to end the playoff drought (and it might be even higher leverage in the grand scheme)
The baserunning mistake was bad, but the blame is on the 3rd base coach who was waving him around while Robles was making that catch.
LETS GO M’s
CC with the "Ding Dongs" on the brain tonight. 😂
Win the series and the tiebreaker. 2 for 1💪

Robles is so damn fast out there! What a catch when we needed it
I was at the game tonight. That catch happened so fast it was almost impossible to tell what happened in the stadium. Incredible incredible catch.
Dan Wilson ran out of the dugout.
Game was over.
Stadium went silent.
Mariners contingent went berserk.
Didn't they just say muscle tightness? I didnt hear the word "strain"
His new name is “Victory “ Robles!
I've been a fan since 1987. Victor's catch was a top-10 play in Mariners history, full stop.
I might have been the only man to actually be happy to have Jorge Polanco back when we signed him last offseason, and bought his jersey. I wasn’t happy that he was gonna play 3rd base, but with his track record throughout his career , and with him obviously playing through an injury last year I figured he would turn it around, and I’m not surprised. Dude it a stud.
Let’s go Seattle, win the division and then our first World Series, Go Mariners.
I’m proud, I’m relieved, and I’m so damn happy. The better team won the series. Seattle just plain wants it more.
