Mariners vs. Phillies: Haniger hammers two, Woo fans six, Seattle gets walk-off walk

The Phillies currently have the best record in the National League, sitting at 66-45. They're one of the betting favorites to win the World Series and despite being on a cold stretch heading into Seattle, they would be one of the Mariners' toughest opponents. They responded by winning the series and outscoring the Phillies 10-2 in the first game.

Best Hitter: Mitch Haniger

12 PA, .400/.500/1.000, 4 H, 2 HR, 4 R, 3 RBI, 2 BB, 2 K

A surprising pick, no doubt, but Haniger was a presence to behold this weekend. He has struggled at the plate all year, especially against lefties (.459 OPS), but he's been surprisingly serviceable against right-handed pitching (.749). Given his splits, it was even more surprising that one of his home runs came against lefty reliever José Alvarado.

Honorable Mention: Justin Turner

9 PA, .250/.333/.625, 2 H, 1 HR, 2 R, 4 RBI, 2 K, 1 HBP

In his first full series with the team, Turner showed why he's poised to be a real impact bat in the final stretch of the season. His four RBI were the second-most on the team behind just Luke Raley. He has been mostly filling in at first base with one appearance as a designated hitter so far.

Best Pitcher: Bryan Woo

7.0 IP, 5 H, 0 ER, 6 K

Bryan Woo had his best outing since his start against the Athletics on June 6th. His Baseball Reference Game Score of 73 was the third-highest mark he's earned all season. He had nine whiffs, five of which were against his four-seam fastball, and 15 called strikes, nine of which also came against his four-seam fastball. Long story short, Woo's fastball is really good.

Honorable Mention: Logan Gilbert

6.0 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 0 BB, 7 K

After getting shelled for seven earned runs in 2.2 innings against the Red Sox, Gilbert got back to business. He had 17 swinging strikes, eight of which were from his curveball and splitter, and 14 called strikes, eight against his slider.

Best Moment: Mitch Haniger walks it off, literally

After the blowout in the first game, the Phillies came back strong in the second, jumping to a 5-0 lead in the fifth inning. The Mariners responded with five runs of their own and tied the game before sending it to extra innings.

Despite facing the bottom part of the lineup, Collin Snider was still tasked with facing Brandon Marsh, J.T. Realmuto, and Nick Castellanos. After a leadoff walk to Marsh, Snider shut the doors with back-to-back strikeouts and a flyout from Bryson Stott.

For the Phillies, newly acquired Carlos Estévez took the mound for his second inning of work, trying to secure the save. After intentionally walking Cal Raleigh, he got Justin Turner to fly out and punched out Jason Vosler with a foul tip. With a pitch count approaching 30, he hit Dylan Moore with a pitch to load the bases before Haniger stepped up to the plate.

Working all the way up to a full count, Haniger won the battle after watching a high fastball sail above the zone at 96.8 mph, securing the win and the series victory for the Mariners.

Other than being a bright spot in an otherwise dim year for the Seattle veteran, it was an important step in Mariners' history.

The Phillies would shutout the Mariners in the final game of the series but with the Tigers heading into town, Seattle has a chance to extend the one-game lead they currently have over the Astros in the AL West.
