That was the home playoff game Seattle was waiting for.
One day after their series-opening disappointment in extra innings, the Mariners faced a tall task: beat the Tigers with Cy Young favorite Tarik Skubal on the mound or face an 0-2 ALDS hole as the series went to Detroit. They chose the former in a 3-2 win in Game 2, their first playoff game in 24 years.
Skubal looked as dominant as ever, except when he faced Mariners second baseman Jorge Polanco. The MLB veteran took the ace deep twice to give his team the lead.

Those homers would have been enough, had the Tigers not rallied the eighth inning when a pair of mistakes — a walk and a Josh Naylor error — put two runners on base, who both scored on a Spencer Torkelson double. The turn of events left T-Mobile Park quiet, at least until the bottom of the eighth inning.
Franchise cornerstones Cal Raleigh and Julio Rodríguez hit back-to-back doubles to put the Mariners back ahead in a classic postseason moment for the franchise.
