ARLINGTON, Texas — The Seattle Mariners flipped the script Sunday afternoon, turning a deficit into a statement win with a sudden burst of power in the seventh inning. Dominic Canzone crushed a go-ahead three-run homer, and Randy Arozarena followed with a solo shot on the very next pitch, lifting the Mariners to a 6-4 victory over the Texas Rangers at Globe Life Field.

Canzone’s 16th home run of the season, a towering drive that stayed just inside the right-field foul pole, came off reliever Cole Winn and erased a 3-1 deficit. It was the kind of moment that can shift the momentum of a series, especially for a team that had been struggling. Seattle had lost four straight games overall and six in a row at the home of the Rangers this season. The win not only ended those skids but also moved the defending AL West champions back into second place, 1.5 games behind the division-leading Rangers, and just ahead of Houston.

Canzone was the offensive engine, finishing with three hits and four RBIs. He also scored twice, anchoring a lineup that had been quiet for much of the afternoon. His home run, a 2-0 splitter from Winn, landed about 20 rows deep in the right-field seats. Two pitches later, Arozarena sent his 12th homer of the year into the Texas bullpen in right-center, giving the Mariners a 5-3 lead and sending the visiting dugout into a frenzy.

Before that explosion, the Rangers had controlled the game behind starter Jacob deGrom, who was sharp over five-plus innings. He allowed seven hits and one run, striking out five. But the Mariners finally broke through in the sixth, when Canzone and Arozarena opened the inning with back-to-back singles, chasing deGrom from the game. The bullpen initially held, but the seventh inning unraveled for Winn. Colt Emerson and Cole Young opened with consecutive singles, and after Julio Rodríguez popped out on the first pitch, Canzone delivered the knockout blow.

Seattle’s pitching staff also stepped up. Gabe Speier (2-2) retired all four batters he faced across the sixth and seventh innings, keeping the game within reach. Andrés Muñoz then closed the door in the ninth, striking out the side for his 18th save in 23 chances.

Texas had taken the lead in the fourth inning on RBI singles by Brandon Nimmo and Nicky Lopez, both off Mariners starter Logan Gilbert. Gilbert lasted 5.2 innings, surrendering five hits and three runs, and walked away with a no-decision after a solid but not dominant outing. The Rangers added a solo home run from Ezequiel Duran in the eighth inning, cutting the lead to 5-4, but that was as close as they would get.

Duran had also delivered a sacrifice fly in the first inning, giving Texas an early 1-0 advantage. The game featured the third meeting this season between Gilbert and deGrom, and both starters left without a decision.

With the win, the Mariners avoided a third consecutive loss in this four-game series, which started as a matchup of the top two teams in the AL West. The series concludes Monday night, with Seattle sending right-hander George Kirby (8-8, 3.57 ERA) to the mound against Texas righty Kumar Rocker (3-8, 4.13 ERA).

The victory was a reminder of the Mariners’ resilience. After a stretch of games where nothing seemed to click, they found a spark in the seventh inning — a sudden, powerful reminder that in baseball, the game can change in an instant.
