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 moved to Detroit. They chose the former in a 3-2 victory in Game 2, their first home playoff win 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 in the eighth inning when a pair of mistakes — a walk and a Josh Naylor error — put two runners on base, and then both scored on a Spencer Torkelson double. That turn of events left T-Mobile Park quiet, at least until the bottom of the 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.
That was the offensive side. On the mound, the Mariners sent out Luis Castillo, who took a no-hitter into the fifth inning but got pulled after his first base hit allowed. Andrés Muñoz closed out the ninth after recording six outs in Game 1. All told, the Seattle pitching staff allowed one earned run while striking out 10 and allowing three hits.

The series now heads to Detroit, where Logan Gilbert and Jack Flaherty are on track to face off in Game 3 beginning at 4:08 p.m. ET Tuesday.

Steelers-Bengals Thursday Night Football Week 7 Preview: Odds, lines, best bets
Pittsburgh Steelers (-5.5) vs. Cincinnati Bengals [Total: 43] Game Overview Sitting atop the AFC North, the Steelers kick off the Week 7 slate with a promising opportunity to take a commanding division lead and establish themselves as a true contender in the conference. On the other sideline, the Bengals are looking to halt a four-game skid, as new signal-caller Joe Flacco gets more acquainted with the scheme and his teammates. After failing to cover their first two games as roughly three-point favorites, the Steelers have flipped the script with three straight covers. That span includes a clutch win as road favorites in New England and an outright win as the underdog against the Vikings in Dublin. Pittsburgh’s inefficiencies on both sides of the ball to start the year have become a distant memory. Since Week 3, the Steelers have catapulted […]

No goal in a month – so how is Gyokeres helping Arsenal?
Viktor Gyokeres arrived at Arsenal as a goal machine, with 97 goals in 102 games at former club Sporting. He was branded as the natural goalscorer, the final piece of the puzzle that Arsenal were missing.So, no goal in a month - hitting six straight blanks - is a concern for the forward recently given the European Golden Shoe prize at the Ballon D'Or Awards. "He would get frustrated if he went three or four games without a goal," said Coventry's former assistant manager Adi Viveash to Sky Sports last season about working with the striker in the Championship."He didn't want to go that long. He would get a little bit edgy if he went a few games without one."A record of three goals in ten games in Arsenal colours isn't horrendous, especially with the team winning eight of those […]
