Josh Naylor stole his 30th base, becoming the first first baseman since George Sisler (1920-1922) with consecutive 30-steal seasons, and J.P. Crawford's go-ahead homer in the 7th completed a comeback win.

Anderson left Saturday's game after being struck on the throwing-side forearm; the injury adds to a lengthy Mariners injury list that includes Andres Munoz (knee, expected back in 2027), Emerson Hancock (done for the year) and Brendan Donovan (concussion, not cleared to return this season).

The club held a farewell weekend for the retiring broadcaster, including a ceremonial first pitch and a custom chest protector from Cal Raleigh. Rizzs will join the Mariners Hall of Fame in 2027.

After Seattle's first losing season since 2019 one year removed from a near-World Series run, national reporting frames a managerial change as the likely offseason move while GM Jerry Dipoto and Justin Hollander are expected to be retained.

Rodriguez said he could have done more this year, citing timing issues at the plate, but expressed confidence heading into 2027: "I believe in my talent."

Seattle's elimination was triggered when a division rival clinched the AL West before the Mariners' finale; the team's most recent game was a 7-5 loss to the Angels. "We definitely didn't deserve to make the playoffs," catcher Cal Raleigh said.

Rizzs called his final home broadcast after 41 years with the Mariners (52 overall as a broadcaster), with a farewell weekend that included a Friday fireworks show and a Sunday "Holy Smokes!" shirt giveaway tied to his signature catchphrase. He will become the club's 12th Hall of Fame inductee next season. "I've been the luckiest man on the face of the earth," Rizzs said.

The knee inflammation first surfaced Sept. 20 in Denver; Munoz was placed on the IL ahead of Friday's game, ending his season with three games remaining. GM Justin Hollander said imaging showed "nothing serious, nothing structurally concerning." Munoz finishes the year at a 4.24 ERA with 28 saves, a step down from his 2024-25 All-Star seasons.

Seattle's top affiliate closed its season with a 3-2 win over Round Rock. Infielder Ryan Bliss broke Tacoma's franchise all-time stolen-base record this season.

Woo allowed five runs over 5⅓ innings as Los Angeles rallied from a 2-0 deficit; Julio Rodríguez had homered early for Seattle. Christian Moore's two-run double in the sixth put the Angels ahead for good.

Rodden's rookie season ends early with left patella tendon inflammation; he remains playoff-eligible if Seattle qualifies. Separately, Brendan Donovan (concussion since Aug. 17) is seeing a specialist, and Matt Brash (lat inflammation, PRP injection) won't resume throwing until roughly 8 weeks into the offseason.

Seattle's All-Star catcher said the shortcomings spanned the organization rather than any one department, citing defense, road performance and clutch hitting as specific problem areas for a preseason contender that finished under .500.

Seattle must sweep its final four games against the Angels while both Texas and Houston lose out for the Mariners to tie atop the AL West, where they would hold the tiebreaker.

Longtime radio voice Rick Rizzs closes his 41st and final season during the Sept. 25-28 series against the Angels, with in-park tributes, a ceremonial first pitch and fan giveaways planned across the homestand.

Seattle rallied from a 4-0 deficit to beat Houston 6-5 in 10 innings on a Josh Naylor walk-off single, updating the club's playoff status from the brink of elimination reported earlier in the week. The Mariners remain mathematically alive but now need to sweep their final four games while both Houston and Texas lose out.

Seattle was held scoreless for the 15th time this season (3rd-most in franchise history) as Houston pulled level in the AL West. With Texas's same-night loss to the Mets, Seattle's magic number to elimination fell to 1. Logan Gilbert allowed 10 hits over 4 innings, his most-hit outing of the season; his next scheduled start is the Sept. 27 season finale vs. the Angels.

Closer Andres Munoz's Tuesday-morning MRI, after exiting his Sept. 20 outing, showed 'nothing serious, nothing structurally concerning' per GM Justin Hollander. Brendan Donovan (concussion since Aug. 22) will not return this season and sees a UW Medicine specialist Wednesday. Emerson Hancock's season could also be over. Matt Brash (lat strain) got a PRP injection and is down roughly eight weeks post-season.
