Anaheim, California – In a thrilling finish, Zach Neto marked his bobblehead giveaway night with a memorable performance by delivering a two-out, game-winning single in the 10th inning, leading the Los Angeles Angels to a 3-2 victory over the Seattle Mariners on July 25, 2025. This victory snapped a four-game losing streak for the Angels and provided a much-needed boost for the team and its fans.
This was not only a key win for the Angels but also the first walk-off hit of Neto’s young career. The 23-year-old shortstop contributed significantly throughout the game, recording two hits and scoring a run. Jo Adell also played a major role in the Angels’ win, driving in two runs early on to secure their lead.
The Mariners’ designated hitter Julio Rodriguez was the standout player for Seattle, hitting two solo home runs that kept his team competitive. Rodriguez’s first home run came in the opening inning when he belted a 98-mph sinker from Angels starter José Soriano over the fence. This gave Seattle an early 1-0 advantage. Adell quickly answered back for the Angels with a two-out, two-run double in the bottom of the first inning, turning the score in favor of the Angels at 2-1.
Rodriguez continued to shine, hitting his second home run in the sixth inning, a 408-foot blast that tied the game at 2-2. With both teams locked in a tight contest, pitching dominated the middle innings. Seattle’s starter Bryan Woo delivered a strong performance, pitching six innings, allowing only two runs on four hits while striking out six and walking two. Soriano matched Woo’s performance similarly, also pitching six innings while giving up two runs and four hits, with five strikeouts and one walk.
As the game progressed into extra innings, the tension heightened when the Mariners put two runners on base with no outs in the 10th. However, Angels reliever Ryan Zeferjahn executed under pressure, successfully escaping the jam to keep the game tied. In the bottom of the tenth, Neto’s clutch hit drove in the winning run, setting off celebrations among the Angels players and fans alike.
Mariners right-hander Casey Legumina, who took the loss, now has a season record of 4-5. Woo’s performance further established his streak of six innings or more with two or fewer walks in all 20 starts this season, ranking him among the best in MLB history.
Looking ahead, the Mariners will face Angels left-hander Tyler Anderson in the next game scheduled for July 26, 2025, with George Kirby set to pitch for Seattle. The stakes will be high as both teams look to push for a strong finish in the season.
This victory not only uplifted the Angels’ morale but also underscored the potential of their young stars like Neto and Adell, making for an exciting season ahead in Major League Baseball.
