Seattle Mariners beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 7-6 in the teams’ series opener on Tuesday night. Dominic Canzone hit a tiebreaking two-run home run in the eighth inning to move Seattle ahead 7-5. The homer was Canzone’s second of the game and the fifth of the season for him, coming off Dodgers reliever Alex Vesia. Julio Rodríguez reached base with a single, then stole second before Canzone’s blast, with Rodríguez scoring on the play.
The game features a late Seattle rally following a close contest through earlier innings. With the two-run go-ahead swing in the eighth, the Mariners take a one-run advantage they hold as the Dodgers respond in the closing portion of the game. Overall, the result is a one-run decision in which Canzone’s eighth-inning homer is the decisive moment for Seattle.
