The Story
The Los Angeles Angels defeated the Seattle Mariners 6-4 at Angel Stadium on September 14, 2026, rallying from an early deficit to hand Seattle a road loss. The DiamondIQ model opened with a 45 percent home win probability for Los Angeles and closed at 100 percent, a full reversal that reflects how decisively the Angels seized control after falling behind. Los Angeles scored twice in the first inning, went quiet in the second, then added two more in the third before Seattle responded with three runs in the fourth to briefly take the lead.
The swing plays defined the outcome. Cal Raleigh delivered the biggest single moment of the game, a home run off Reid Detmers in the top of the fourth that shifted win probability by plus 21.4 percent in Seattle's favor, briefly making the Mariners the more likely winner. Los Angeles answered in the bottom of the fifth when Denzer Guzman singled off Cooper Criswell for a plus 15.1 percent swing, restoring momentum to the home side and proving to be the decisive sequence of the night. Zach Neto's triple off Kade Anderson in the bottom of the third had already added 10.6 percent to Los Angeles's win probability, and J.P. Crawford's solo home run off Blake Weiman in the seventh added 7.9 percent for Seattle but came too late to matter. Michael Arroyo's groundout against Detmers in the second inning was the most damaging unproductive at-bat for Seattle, costing the team 7.6 percent in win probability.
Among individual performers, Raleigh led all batters with a plus 14.1 percent WPA and plus 1.6 RE24, though his effort was ultimately on the losing side. Neto paced the Angels offensively at plus 13.0 percent WPA and plus 1.5 RE24, while Guzman contributed plus 12.3 percent WPA. On the mound, Ryan Watson was the most impactful arm by the DiamondIQ model's estimate at plus 9.5 percent WPA, followed by starter Reid Detmers at plus 8.0 percent and Ben Joyce at plus 6.3 percent, a trio that collectively kept Seattle from completing the comeback.
