The game was called after seven innings. The Mariners scored nine runs in the third, with Carp driving in all five of his runs during the frame. He has 43 RBI in just 70 games for the season. Miguel Olivo (60), Justin Smoak (50) and Ichiro Suzuki (44) are the only Mariners with more RBI.

Goodman smacked his sixth homer of the season with a solo shot off Wandy Peralta in the eighth inning to extend the Colorado lead to 8-2. He also singled twice while drawing a walk, and his slash improved to .264/.340/.540. After a bit of a scuffle over his first couple handfuls of games, Goodman is back to swinging the stick that made him one of the breakout backstops of 2026. There’s very little reason to think he’s going to slow down much in the coming months.

Campusano took Jaden Hill for a ride with a solo shot in the seventh inning. That’s the second homemr of the campaign for the backstop, and he is already up to six doubles to go with the roundtrippers. IT’s very early, but Campusano has played well in his limited time with a slash of .333/.385/.667 in his 36 at-bats.

After pitching well in his previous two starts, Buehler was back to scuffling during Wednesday’s loss; being easily outpitched by Tomoyuki Sugano. The right-hander gave up eight hits before exiting in the third, and he also issued three walks while needing a whopping 82 pitches to get eight outs. Not ideal Buehler now has a 5.75 ERA, and with the Padres officially inking Lucas Giolito, he’s obviously a name that could be bounced from the rotation when San Diego assuredly moves Giolito into the rotation. As for now, he gets a chance to rebound against the Cubs next week.

Sugano has been a real bright spot for the Rockies to begin 2025, even after he struggled while allowing five runs in his previous start against the Dodgers. This is now four-of-five outings that he’s allowed no more than two runs, and he’s forged a respectable 19/6 K/BB over his 26 1/3 innings in his first year with the Rockies. Sugano isn’t ever going to be an elite bat-misser, but he limits the hard contact enough to be a viable streamer against weaker lineups. He’ll have to pitch in the less-than-friendly confines of Cincinnati on Tuesday, however, against the Reds.

Bailey has been atrocious with the bat in 2026, and it’s more than fair to be surprised that he’s the one who hits the go-ahead shot off Jack Dreyer with two runners on to give San Francisco a 3-0 lead and ultimately the win. The backstop has his first homer of the season, and he’s still slashing an ugly .155/.222/.207. Something tells us San Francisco fans don’t care too much about that right now.

Walker issued a walk, but didn’t allow a hit while procuring his third save of the 2026 season. The scoreless inning lowers his ERA to 3.27 on the campaign, and he’s allowed just two runs in his 8 2/3 innings of work in April.

Mahle had to be close to perfect with Shohei Ohtani also firing scoreless frame after frame, but he was able to last one more inning than Ohtani will getting a three-run homer from Patrick Bailey to allow him to pick up the win. The right-hander was awful against the Reds last week (4 IP, 8 ER), but brilliant against the Dodgers in this one, which is just proof that baseball is definitely a sport. He’ll look to keep lowering his 5.26 ERA against the Phillies on Tuesday in Philadelphia.

Ohtani scattered five hits while not issuing a walk. He pitched brilliantly while hitting 100 mph on the gun, but he got a goose egg of support to prevent him from picking up the win. He also went hitless and didn’t draw a walk, so his 53-game streak of reaching base is over. He’s scheduled to return to the mound Tuesday against the Marlins, and he’ll take a 0.38 ERA into that contest. A remarkable baseball player.

Santana finished the job for the Pirates, but it came in an 8-4 game so there’s no save for the right-hander. He did pick up a pair of strikeouts without allowing a hit, however, and his ERA for the first three weeks of the season is a miniscule 0.75. That’ll work.

Jung was responsible for the only two runs the Rangers were able to pick up when Graham Ashcraft was in the game. That’s the third roundtripper of the season for the third baseman, and he’s driven in 11 runs over his 21 games played. Jung has disappointed over the past two seasons more often than not, but it’s certainly possible a breakout campaign could be coming as a 28-year-old.
