Carlos Correa was the hero for the Twins, hitting a crucial two-run home run in the tenth inning that turned the game into an impressive 12-6 comeback victory over the Seattle Mariners on Friday. The clutch hit from the Minnesota Twins ’ All-Star shortstop not only saved the game but also proved their determination, which has guided them all season. It was Carlos Correa’s heroics that gave the Minnesota Twins the win, after they rallied in the final frame to score 6 runs and take the lead from the previously comfortable Seattle Mariners.
Carlos Correa's clutch performance shifts momentum for Minnesota TwinsThings became clear when Carlos Correa was up against Seattle Mariners pitcher Casey Legumina with people on base. The veteran player swung quickly and hit the first-pitch sinker over the left-field fence to give his team the lead. Correa now has seven home runs for the season, and three of them have come when runners are on base.
In the tenth, Willi Castro hit a two-run homer off Andres Munoz, which ended the Seattle Mariners closer’s perfect earned run streak he had in 2025. After that, Trevor Larnach had an RBI single to tie the game and set the stage for Carlos Correa’s win. Buxton was activated from the concussion list only to steal second and be in place to cross home plate after Larnach’s important hit.
Seattle Mariners' Cal Raleigh makes history despite team's defeatEven though the Mariners lost, catcher Cal Raleigh made history with a strong personal performance. The power-hitting catcher hit two home runs, one of which was a two-run shot and the other a three-run shot. By doing this, Raleigh became the very first Major League Baseball catcher to hit 20 home runs before June 1st, joining the group of Alex Rodriguez and Ken Griffey Jr. from the Seattle Mariners.
For the Seattle Mariners, losing the game was particularly tough since they had a three-run lead going into the late innings. Manager Scott Servais is likely to consider why he used closer Andres Munoz in a situation that wasn't a save, since the move led to the reliever failing for the first time in his career.
Fans can watch the next chapter of this series on Saturday night when the Minnesota Twins play the Seattle Mariners; Bailey Ober will pitch for Minnesota against Bryce Miller, who has returned from injury.
