Ben Williamson is the first former @RainiersLand to have a walk-off hit in the #WorldSeries since Scott Podsednik (w/ TAC from 2001-02) hit a walk-off HR for the Chicago White Sox in Game 2 of the 2005 Fall Classic!

Let’s not pretend we didn’t see this result coming tonight #analytics
it is bad news for the rays that WS game 3 is on Oct. 26th The brewers were the most dominant team in baseball on the 26th day of the month this season going 7-0 (1.000) and outscoring their opp. 53-9

The ol’ 2-4-5-2-1-5 double play. Just how you draw them up.
Definitely the longest strike em out throw em out of the season.

Sounds like just an inning or 2 for SWR tonight as he gets built back up. Also expecting to see Nolan Kingham for an inning tonight, since he’s hasn’t thrown in a game in a week. #TridentsUp

RHP Nick Garcia recorded the W in Tacoma's 7-6 win on Sunday and then got the save in last night's victory. He's the first Rainiers reliever to record a win and then a save in consecutive team games since LHP Bobby LaFromboise did it May 21-22, 2013, vs. Nashville #TridentsUp

One extra layer: Garcia got the save last night *in Albuquerque*, right across the street from where LaFromboise went to school at the University of New Mexico, where the Mariners eventually drafted him in the 8th RD in 2008!
