Seattle Mariners Preview

Seattle’s offense has been powered by its stars early in the postseason. Julio Rodríguez is 4-for-9 with a double, home run, and three RBI, while Jorge Polanco has two home runs and four hits in eight at-bats. Cal Raleigh has four hits in nine at-bats and gives Seattle another power bat behind Rodríguez. The Mariners are batting .200 with a .233 on-base percentage and .357 slugging percentage through two playoff games, producing most runs from the top of the lineup.

Logan Gilbert gets the start for Game 3, making his first appearance this postseason. Seattle’s bullpen has carried the load so far, giving up just four runs across two games and keeping Detroit quiet in late innings. The Mariners’ pitching and defense have controlled both games, allowing only five total runs.

Detroit Tigers Preview

Detroit returns home after splitting the first two games in Seattle. The Tigers are hitting .186 in the postseason, but have had success from a few key hitters. Javier Báez leads the team with a .316 average and six hits, Kerry Carpenter has a .278 mark with a home run and three RBI, and Riley Greene has matched Báez with six hits and two doubles. Spencer Torkelson has driven in four runs despite only three hits, showing timely contact with runners in scoring position.

Jack Flaherty starts for Detroit after a strong 4.2-inning outing in the Wild Card round, where he allowed one run with a 1.93 ERA and 1.07 WHIP. He mixed pitches well and limited hard contact. Close games have stretched the Tigers’ bullpen, so a deeper outing from Flaherty would be important to rest most of the pen’s arms before Game 4.

Seattle Mariners vs Detroit Tigers Prediction

Both teams have relied on pitching and defense through the first two games, and that pattern should continue. Gilbert’s fresh arm and Seattle’s bullpen make the difference in another close game. Detroit’s bats will remain quiet against tough right-handed pitching. Final Score Prediction: Mariners win 4–2.
