Luis Castillo Leads Mariners to 1-0 Shutout Over Pirates

News summary

Luis Castillo led the Seattle Mariners to a 1-0 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates with a dominant pitching performance at T-Mobile Park. Castillo pitched seven scoreless innings, allowing only two hits and striking out eight batters, including a decisive 96.8-mph fastball strikeout of Oneil Cruz to end the seventh inning. The Mariners' lone run came in the sixth inning when Ben Williamson doubled in Jorge Polanco, securing the win in a tightly contested pitchers' duel. Castillo's control and velocity were key, as he executed pitches with precision, including a slider and changeup that left batters off balance. The Pirates were held without a runner advancing past first base for the first time in four seasons, reflecting the Mariners' strong defense behind Castillo. With this win, Seattle improved to 47-42, maintaining a competitive position in the American League West and the Wild Card race.
