Mariners Edge Tigers 4-3 with Haniger's Double

Mitch Haniger led the Seattle Mariners to a dramatic 4-3 victory over the Detroit Tigers with a game-ending three-run double on Thursday night. The Mariners were trailing 3-0 until Luke Raley's homer in the sixth sparked their comeback. In a tense ninth inning, after loading the bases, Haniger's fly ball got past Tigers right fielder Ryan Vilade, clearing the bases for the win. This victory ties Seattle with the Houston Astros for the AL West lead. Despite a strong start from Mariners pitcher Bryan Woo, who retired the first 12 batters, the Tigers initially took control with an RBI double from Meadows and a two-run double from McKinstry. Both teams faced injury concerns, with Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez testing his ankle, while Tigers pitcher Casey Mize made a rehab start.
