Jorge Polanco joins Edgar, Griffey Jr. and Buhner as Mariners who homered 2x in 1 Postseason game! πŸ”±

And now Palco, who is the difference in this game, will climb back in against Scooble. Well, the one thing that teams have done, and if you looked at the Guardians who beat Scooble, they didn’t beat Scooble, but they beat the the Tigers when Scooble pitched, is you almost have to outlast them. And you have to have your starting pitcher and your pitcher match them. And that’s what the the Mariners have done so far. They scored the one run. Castillo, great. Spires come in for four outs. Just have to do that and hope he gets out of the game and with and you have the lead and your bullpen can hold that lead. [Applause] Back to the fourth inning we go with one out and the base is empty. Palano on that slider and you can see he’s a little late on the fast ball. The slider is just a tick slow. 93 94 and it gives him time to get the head out right there. Pull his hands in, pull that ball over the fence. There’s a strike and it’s one and two. Palano’s OPS is about 50 points better versus right-handers for his career, but this year it was almost 90 points better against lefties than righties. It was a big year for him against left-handers. Facing one of the best in the game right now. It’s two and two. [Applause] It’s always interesting when they come back up later in the game after they’ve hit a home run. You’re thinking, do I go back to that same pitch and just bury it or do I go completely away from it? 2-2 and he doubled up on the change up that time and Palano laid off. It’s three and two. All the pitches he’s swung at so far up in the zone. He’s taking the balls low. So if you want to exploit that, you raise the fast ball a little bit higher. Payoff pitch to Palanco. Fast ball drove deep left field. Jorge Palano has done it again. [Applause] Heat. [Applause] Heat. [Applause] A pair of electric Palanco deliveries tonight. He’s gotten Scooble twice now. Right down the middle. 3-2 count. Scubble tried to go in on him, does not get it in there like you talked about earlier, Weno. And it is two nothing Jorge Palano. He was resigned by Jerry Dapoto on a one-year $7 million deal despite the left knee surgery after the year last year. And man is this veteran resign paying dividends tonight in game two. A two nothing lead for Seattle. Playoff Randy. How about playoff Palanco? [Music] Jorge Palano is the first player this year and just the fourth all time to have two home runs against TK Scubble in one game.

Jorge Polanco had two career #Postseason homers entering the second game of the 2025 American League Division Series before hitting two for the Seattle Mariners on October 5, 2025.

  18. Man, if Skubal is ousted from the post-season, that’s one less absolute stud for the other teams to worry about. Same with Max Fried & Cam Schlitter of the Yankees.

  26. Polanco you are truly remarkable, and I appreciate your hard work. Coming back from injury, and being a clutch teammate. Damn what a nail biter.πŸ™„ What a beautiful win. Thanks Mariners πŸ”±πŸ‘πŸ˜

  28. Wouldn't it be cool if the crowd would start a "wave" emanating out both directions from the spot where the HR hitters hoist the golden trident?
    The Poseidon Wave, baby. Next level.
