Anaheim, CA – The Seattle Mariners secured a 4-2 victory over the Los Angeles Angels on July 24, 2025, at Angel Stadium, highlighted by home runs from stars Julio Rodríguez, Randy Arozarena, and Jorge Polanco.
The Mariners’ win featured a strong pitching performance from rookie Logan Evans, who allowed only one run in five innings of work. With this victory, Evans improved his record to 4-3 on the season, demonstrating his growing prowess on the mound. In his outing, the 24-year-old yielded three hits, walked three batters, and struck out three.
Seattle’s offense was powered by Rodríguez, who not only hit a pivotal solo home run to tie the game 1-1 but also showcased his speed by stealing third base in the first inning. Rodríguez’s impressive display marks his season total of 15 home runs and 20 stolen bases, making him the first player in Major League Baseball history to achieve at least 15 home runs and 20 stolen bases in each of his first four seasons. Arozarena added to the scoring with a two-run homer in the fifth inning, extending the Mariners’ lead to 3-1.
The Angels initially took control of the game, with Mike Trout strategically hitting a double that led to an RBI single from Nolan Schanuel in the first inning. However, Zach Neto’s later addition of a solo RBI single in the seventh inning was not enough to overcome the deficit. In contrast, the Mariners put the game out of reach with a fourth run, while Andrés Muñoz closed the game for Seattle by pitching a scoreless ninth inning for his 23rd save. Notably, Trout loaded the bases in the ninth with a four-pitch walk, but Muñoz responded by securing the final out, forcing Schanuel to line out.
This contest represented a tough stretch for the Los Angeles Angels, marking their fourth consecutive loss and leaving them with a dismal record of 49-54. In contrast, the Mariners improved their standing to 54-48, fueling their hopes to remain competitive for playoff positioning.
In addition to the game results, the Mariners made a strategic move by acquiring first baseman Josh Naylor from the Arizona Diamondbacks on the same day, aiming to bolster their roster as they push for a playoff spot.
The defeat adds pressures on the Angels as they look to turn their season around, with fans hoping for improvements in the coming games. Seattle is looking ahead as Bryan Woo is set to take the mound against the Angels’ José Soriano in the second game of their four-game series on Friday.
The performance of both teams throughout this game showcases the competitive nature of the league, with critical implications as the season progresses toward its culmination. The results and statistics from this matchup will undoubtedly influence both teams’ strategies moving forward.
