The Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the Seattle Mariners 5–1 on June 25 at PNC Park, with the home team's offense delivering just enough production to exceed the Vegas total of 8.5 runs. Pittsburgh's batters recorded 8 hits and 2 home runs while driving in 5 runs, posting a .746 OPS despite striking out 13 times and drawing just 1 walk. Seattle's pitching staff accumulated 13 strikeouts but surrendered 5 earned runs across the game, while the Mariners' offense managed only 6 hits, 0 home runs, and 1 RBI with a .695 OPS—a stark contrast to their 6 walks drawn. The Pirates' pitching held Seattle to just 1 run on 6 hits with a 4.08 ERA, striking out 7 while walking 6. Pittsburgh's defensive miscue (1 error) did not prove costly in this lopsided matchup. The Mariners' inability to generate power and consistent run production signals continued offensive struggles that may force adjustments to their lineup construction.
