Mariners lose 2-1 to the Brewers on a walk-off solo homer

Notable

Facing his old team, right-hander Taylor Williams entered the bottom of the ninth inning for Seattle with the score tied 1-1. After retiring the first two batters, Williams challenged minor-leaguer Luis Castro with a 3-2 fastball. The pitch was belt high and over the middle of the plate. Castro crushed it onto the berm in left-center for a walk-off solo homer.

It was a difficult ending to an otherwise solid night for Mariners pitchers. After Taijuan Walker gave up a homer to leadoff hitter Lorenzo Cain to start the game, the Brewers didn’t score again until the ninth.
