Seattle Mariners Set Franchise Record with Nine Doubles in Wild Win Over New York Mets

The Seattle Mariners delivered an explosive offensive performance, setting a new team record with nine doubles to overcome the New York Mets 11-9 in a thrilling contest at Citi Field. Cal Raleigh led the charge, smashing his major league-leading 46th home run and sparking a pivotal five-run seventh inning with his first double since late June.

Cal Raleigh’s Historic Night

Cal Raleigh became the first player in the majors this season to reach 100 RBIs, driving a two-run homer deep into the left-field second deck to give Seattle a 4-3 lead in the third inning. Raleigh continued his tear with back-to-back doubles in the seventh and eighth innings, helping fuel Seattle’s come-from-behind victory.

Mariners Rally Against Mets’ Slump

The Mariners rallied from a 6-5 deficit in the seventh inning, beginning with Raleigh’s double. Eugenio Suárez doubled to score the tying run off Ryan Helsley, and Dominic Canzone immediately followed with a go-ahead RBI double off Brooks Raley. Donavan Solano found the top of the left field wall for another RBI double, and rookie Cole Young capped the rally with a two-run double.

New York’s Power Surge Not Enough

Francisco Lindor homered twice for the Mets, including a leadoff shot and another two-run blast to seize a 5-4 lead in the fourth inning. Juan Soto and Francisco Alvarez also went deep, with Alvarez launching a three-run homer in the eighth. However, New York’s offensive fireworks fell short as the Mariners' record-setting doubles total proved decisive. The Mets have now dropped 14 of their last 16 games.

Additional Standouts for Seattle

Mitch Garver added a solo home run for the Mariners, while Julio Rodriguez chipped in two RBI doubles. Cole Young delivered an RBI single in the sixth inning that narrowed the deficit to one, setting up Seattle’s late push.

Pitching Performances

Seattle starter Luis Castillo struggled, matching his season worst by allowing six runs on nine hits over four innings. Mets starter Sean Manaea conceded four runs and six hits across five innings of work.

Key Moment

After Jackson Kowar surrendered Francisco Alvarez’s eighth-inning homer, Matt Brash entered the game and retired Francisco Lindor to end the threat. Andrés Muñoz shut the door in the ninth, securing his 29th save of the season.

Key Stats

Cal Raleigh matched his career high with 100 RBIs in just 448 at-bats, equaling last year’s total which he reached in 546 trips to the plate. Seattle set a franchise mark with nine doubles in a single game.

Up Next

On Saturday, the Mariners will send right-hander Bryan Woo (10-6, 3.08 ERA) to the mound to face Mets rookie Nolan McLean, who makes his major league debut.

In summary

The Seattle Mariners showcased historic offensive prowess in a high-scoring win against the New York Mets, powered by Cal Raleigh’s milestone home run and a club-record nine doubles. Despite multi-homer games from the Mets, including two from Francisco Lindor, Seattle’s late-inning surge proved decisive. The Mariners continue their push toward the postseason while the struggling Mets look for answers. Stay tuned as the series resumes with promising pitching matchups.
