Mariners walk off Cubs in 10th

The Seattle Mariners snapped a late deficit with a 6-5 walk-off win over the Chicago Cubs in 10 innings, highlighted by Leo Rivas delivering the deciding hit after entering as a pinch-runner for Taylor Ward and staying in to drive in the go-ahead run from center with two outs. Rivas’ RBI single scored Randy Arozarena, sealing the dramatic victory as Seattle erased a 3-0 deficit and rallied with Cal Raleigh’s three-run homer in the second inning to surge ahead. Chicago tied the game in the ninth when Alex Bregman hit a solo homer off Andrés Muñoz, continuing a night that featured both clubs trading leads and momentum. Emerson Hancock settled after a rough first inning to log six innings of three runs allowed, while Cal Raleigh and Brendan Donovan contributed key hits to support Seattle’s comeback efforts. With the win, Seattle improves to 61-68, four games back of Houston in the AL West, while the Cubs maintain a five-game lead in the NL wild-card race, in front of their largest home crowd of the year.
