Rangers vs. Mariners Game Highlights (8/2/25) | MLB Highlights

Luis Castillo is on the mount. He starts game three for the Mariners and he’s been so steady all year long and he’s been doing it really good of late a lot with the the uh the fast ball has been really dominant. Leaning on that pitch a ton. Josh Smith, Cory Seager, Marcus Simeon. The first three do up here for Texas. Swing and a miss and a fast ball elevated and he strikes out Josh Smith to begin the ball game. you how dominant he was coming over in that trade and ever since he’s just been so steady and that pitch right there, that fast ball at the top of the strike zone. Well, this should finally end it. JP Crawford patrolling out and a Rosarena right there, hip to hip, makes the catch. The pitch to him, swung on, ground ball softly hit, charging, Suarez has it, throws on the move, a little low, dug out by Naylor and that’s it for the Rangers. They go one, two, three in the first and Castillo off and rolling. Mel Kelly though makes his debut for the Rangers. The 6’2 righty 36y old just traded from the Arizona Diamondbacks. Making his debut for the Texas Rangers this afternoon. 9 and6 record as the Mariners go with Randy Rosena. Cal Raleigh Julio Rodriguez up top. A swing and a miss and Kelly gets his first strike out as he takes care of Randy Rosena. 42 home runs for Cal number one in baseball. Kelly’s 2-2 and a swing and a miss. He got him on the fast ball, but that’s backto-back strikeouts for Mel Kelly. Kelly in the month of July, five starts, a 2 and2 record with a 235 ERA. And that’s hit hard out to right field. Garcia is back. He’ll make the catch and it’s a 123 first inning. Well, seems like another really good addition for the Texas Rangers. We go to the bottom of the second, no score. Mariners and Rangers. Josh Naylor going to lead things off against his former teammate. Swing and Naylor golfs one in the air to center field. Langford drifts back, slows near the track, stops shy of the track. He makes the catch as he backpedals onto the cinders. And Naylor is retired. So that brings up a Suarez. He’s had a hit in each of his first two games back with Seattle. And this one is lifted down the right side heading foul. TZ has room and he makes the catch. And this one lined out to center. Langford coming in. He’ll make the waist high grab. And the inning is over. Merryill Kelly with two scoreless innings to get us going here today. Three strikeouts. Castillo looking sharp. TZ still trying to find his swing as a Ranger. He’s five for 18. Oh, two pitch and TZ bounces it right side. Smothered out there by Young. His throw is late and TZ is aboard. Here’s Kyla Gashio and he hits this ball high in the air deep out to left. A Rosa rain is back. It’s gone. And Higgy has done it again. Castillo trying to go up doesn’t get it up enough. And Higgy, who’s seeing the ball great right now, catches it clean and puts the Rangers on the board. And Osuna and he takes low. That’s ball four. Good at bat. So an infield hit, a two-run homer, now a walk. Bottom third of the order for the Rangers. Getting something done here. It’ll get Seager to the plate. 3-2 pitch. That’s lined out into right field. That’s a base hit. Osuna got that head start and Beasley throws up the stop sign at third. Well, Seager’s single has put Rangers on the corners now. Marcus Simeon the batter line. Young two outs. And Castillo in a position here where he can limit the damage. Garcia in a three for 23 funk on this road trip. He got him. He blows it past him and Luis Castillo limits the damage. He strands a pair and strikes out Garcia. It’s been fun to watch today. Our first look at Kelly in a Rangers uniform. Good challenge here. He’ll get Rally to start the inning. 02 and a swing and a miss at the change up. Great start so far for Kelly. Julio, a little tapper out in front of the plate. Higashi pounces on it. It’s in fair territory and he throws him out and that’s a quick out number two. So now Naylor and he’ll roll this one down to first. How about that? Toz to the bag. Farrell Kelly making it look easy so far this afternoon. Another swift fourth inning. All right, we go to the bottom of the sixth inning. The one base runner for the Mariners so far came on a Cole Young infield single. A little dribbler down the right field line. this ball. Short hops and goes over the wall for a ground rule double. Yeah, everybody get fired up about that one. The Mariners have an extra base hit. Well, this is where this kind of new ordered lineup for the Mariners can really come through for you. You’ve got Randy, Cal, Julio at the top. And right now, the tying run is at the plate. Line drive and JP having a duck for cover. Mariners have him on the corners. And here is Cal Raleigh. Cal struck out twice. Second move and they’ve called a B. They call a B on Kelly. Wow. Here comes Crawford. And that’s how the Mariners get their first run. So there was a pickoff attempt. Then he stepped off and then he picked over there again. 2-2. And that looked good. Strike three called. Raleigh goes down looking and down on strikes for the third time today. Up to Julio now into right field and it touches down base hit. Clanks up Garcia’s glove. This game is tied as Julio stands up at second base. He has evened it up in the sixth inning. Garcia has been so good defensively this year for the Rangers, but that was costly. That puts Julio at second base. Here is Naylor. A chance to put the Mariners in front. Chopper back to the mound. Kelly is going to third. He went to third base with it and he throws wide and Julio’s all smiles. Everybody’s safe. That’s frustrating. All he had to do was throw it to first base and the inning’s over. I guess in this ballpark, crazy things happen. So he walks off the mound in his Rangers debut. Pitched well for sure, but you know, an odd bottom of the six. They have runners on the corners for Shawn Armstrong and Auano Suarez is the man at the plate. Two balls, two strikes to Suarez and a swing and a miss. He got him. Spun the sweeper right past him. The inning is done. Danny Kulum on the pitch for a second straight game. His Rangers debut yesterday was a strong one and a two- two tie here in the bottom of the seventh inning. Left on left facing Kzone. Let’s see if this can find a soft patch. And it does. It drops in. Can zone go ahead run is aboard. Mariners have him at first and second. A four pitch walk to Garver. Up and in. He draws ball four. It has been one tremendous atbat after another for Cole Young in this series in particular. Now they’re sticking with the lefty Koul who to be fair has been just dynamite this year. Really regardless lefty or righty to face Randy. And that is strike three called to Rosena down looking. What a huge strike out for Kulo. And now with the bases loaded he’s going to face right now what seems to be the American League MVP of 2025. Right in there. Strike three called and Danny Koul walk it off the field. Big boy, you just got out of a mess. Wow. Here we go. Bottom of the ninth. The Mariners a chance to walk it off. 22 the score. The Mariners will call on Jorge Palano to pinch it. Full win is on for the Rangers. Having a good season for Texas. A 135 RA in 16 games, 20 innings. This is not a safe situation, but for the Rangers in this ballpark, it really feels like it. inside bowl four. A leadoff walk to Palano and he swings and misses strike three. So Win gets a very big strike out here. One away. JP walked it off last night. The crowd wants it again. The one two swing and a ball lifted into the air left center field. Osuna and Langford are there and it’s Langford who makes the catch. One strike pitch and this one’s popped up. We should have extra innings. Smith coming down the line, makes the catch and we will go to the 10th. Matt Brash will be the new pitcher in the 10th inning. Ezekiel Duran is the man at second base. Kyle Higashi, you’ll love the way he’s swinging the bat. There’s a bloop center field. That’ll drop base hit. Here comes Durant. The throw not in time. Hagashi does it again and he puts the Rangers in front three to two and a breaking ball lifted out into short right field. That could be trouble drops in and that’s another base hit. The Rangers have trumped two hand grenades this inning and they are going to walk Seager. So the bases are loaded. You got Marcus Simeon who’s been swinging the bat well and has hit a couple balls hard today. And a little roller slowly hit to short. Crawford’s play to first just in time. It’s good enough to get another run to the plate. Just slow enough that the Rangers extend the lead now to four to two. Going to need some 10th inning magic here. Tying run right away at the plate in Rosena. Fly ball. There it goes. Randy’s done it. He has tied it up to the second deck. This game’s tied. Unbelievable. A Rosarena. No one in the big leagues has hit more home runs than Randy A. Rosarena over the last five weeks. He blasted that one to left. A no doubter. And it’s 44. To the 11th we go. Mariners and Rangers all tied again. Four apiece. Peterson the batter. One-1 pitch. And that’s bounced sharply into left field. Garcia has to stop at third. Wyatt Langford the batter. Langford one for four. And he hits this one sharply into right. That’s a base hit. Garcia scores easily. Hagerty racing to third. He’ll get down. He’s in there. Langford with the RBI hit. The Rangers lead five to four. So the Rangers back out in front here. And this one is lined into right. That’s a base hit. Hagerty scores. And the Rangers beat continues. It’s six to four. Obviously both bullpens are thin at this point. I still can’t get over this storyline of Luis Carvello, who made his major league debut just two nights ago, was called on for injury replacement mid at bat in the 10th and struck out Gino and now is tasked to get the final three outs. Master Bone pops this one up short left field. Hagerty coming in, but it is Seager going out and Seager makes the catch and Carver pops it up near first base. Durant squeezes it. Two gone and the Mariners are down to their final out and it’s JP Crawford. Crawford walked it off last night. Is there more magic dust here today? Two- two pitch and a swing and a fly ball short right field. Here comes Garcia. He makes a catch and this one is over. Rangers take one in extra innings. 64. First win here since September of last year. Rangers score in the 10th. They score in the 11th. And this is the first time I’ve ever been here where the Seattle fans are quiet and walking out of this stadium.
