SEATTLE (AP) — Shohei Ohtani became the sixth player to reach the upper deck of T-Mobile Park with a majestic blast for his 33rd homer, but Mitch Haniger’s two-out grand slam in the eighth inning lifted the Seattle Mariners over the Los Angeles Angels 7-3.
Ohtani had the most memorable shot of the night. Haniger hit the most important. Haniger drove a pitch from Jose Quintana into the left-field bullpen to cap Seattle’s rally from a 3-0 deficit.
Shed Long Jr. hit a two-run double off the top of the wall in the fourth inning. The Mariners tied the game 3-3 on Ty France's two-out RBI single in the seventh.
The Angels had a 3-0 lead thanks to Ohtani’s drive off starter Marco Gonzales that soared 463 feet into the top deck in right field. Gonzales gave up three runs on seven hits in 5 2/3 innings.
