His clutch swing extended Seattle’s win streak to five and kept the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/mlb-stories/al-playoff-picture-mariners-rangers-on-astros-tail">Mariners firmly in the 2025 American League playoff race.</a></p><p>Rivas ambushed the first pitch he saw in the bottom of the 10th, sending it just inside the right-field foul pole for a two-run blast. It was only his second home run of the season, but came at the perfect time. The walk-off win pushed the Mariners to 78-68, just 1.5 games behind the Houston Astros in the AL West and still holding the final Wild Card spot over the Texas Rangers, who trail Seattle by 1.5 games.</p><p>MLB.com’s Daniel Kramer shared the moment on X (formerly known as Twitter), capturing the impact of Rivas’ <a href="https://x.com/DKramer_/status/1966010485293351303" rel="noopener">unexpected heroics</a> with a video of the blast.</p><p>“Leo Rivas calls game.</p><p>The Mariners complete a three-game sweep over St. Louis and have won five in a row.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Leo Rivas calls game.</p><p>The Mariners complete a three-game sweep over St. Louis and have won five in a row. <a href="https://t.co/rVv2CKF0TM">pic.twitter.com/rVv2CKF0TM</a></p><p>— Daniel Kramer (@DKramer_) <a href="https://twitter.com/DKramer_/status/1966010485293351303?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 11, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>The 27-year-old infielder has emerged as a quiet contributor, now batting .288 across 38 games. Over his last three appearances, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/seattle-mariners/mariners-news-jerry-dipoto-stance-playing-prospects-start-2025-season">Rivas</a> is hitting .333 with three RBIs, showing he’s more than just a one-swing wonder. His walk-off against the Cardinals was symbolic of a team finding production from every corner of the roster.</p><p>That kind of depth has fueled Seattle’s consistency in recent weeks, especially as the lineup continues to deliver in high-pressure moments.</p><p>The Mariners swept the Cardinals for the first time this season, while St. Louis dropped to 72-75 and slipped further out of NL Wild Card contention. With just 16 games remaining, every win counts—and Rivas’ walk-off blast could stand as a defining moment in the Mariners playoff race.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
