**Neto’s Walk-Off Single Caps Bobblehead Night, Angels Edge Mariners 3-2**
ANAHEIM, Calif. — Zach Neto etched his bobblehead giveaway night into Angels lore with a clutch, two-out RBI single in the 10th inning, propelling the Los Angeles Angels to a thrilling 3-2 victory over the Seattle Mariners on Friday.
The game was a back-and-forth affair. Seattle’s Jose Rodriguez provided the offensive spark for the Mariners, blasting two solo home runs, including a leadoff shot in the first. However, the Angels responded quickly.
After Rodriguez’s first homer, Jo Adell, fighting through a slump, delivered a crucial two-run double in the bottom of the first, giving the Angels a 2-1 lead. Rodriguez tied the game in the sixth with another solo shot, his fifth career multi-homer game.
The score remained deadlocked until the 10th. Angels reliever Ryan Zeferjahn (6-3) escaped a bases-loaded jam, setting the stage for Neto’s heroics. Facing Mariners reliever Casey Legumina (4-5), Neto grounded a single that deflected off the glove of a diving Cole Young, driving in the winning run and sparking a celebration. It was Neto’s first career walk-off hit.
Mariners starter Bryan Woo delivered another quality start, going six innings and allowing two runs, continuing his impressive streak of pitching six innings or more with two or fewer walks, now the fourth-longest in MLB history.
The Angels (snapping a four game losing streak) and Mariners will continue their series on Saturday night.
