Seattle Mariners Radio Broadcaster Delivers Awesome Call of Cole Young's Walk-Off
In this story:
Because the game aired on national television on FOX, most Seattle Mariners fans didn't get to hear how Cole Young's walk-off fielders choice sounded from a Seattle-centric broadcast team.
Enter the M's radio duo of Aaron Goldsmith and Gary Hill Jr., who called the game for Seattle Sports 710. The Mariners won the game 5-4 in 11 innings as Young's grounder to first scored Miles Mastrobuoni from third base.

All in all, it was a successful debut for Young, who went 1-for-4 with a single and a walk. He's the No. 43 prospect in baseball, per MLB Pipeline, and figures to be the M's second baseman of the future.
After a slow April at Triple-A, Young rebounded with a torrid May in Tacoma, raising his average to .277 overall with a .392 on-base percentage. He also had five home runs and 26 RBIs. He's stolen four bases.
The following comes from a portion of his MLB.com prospect profile:
A left-handed-hitting infielder, Young continues to show a very mature approach at the plate. He makes a ton of contact with a simple and repeatable swing, seeing pitches while also limiting the swing-and-miss tendencies, finishing the 2024 season with a 19-percent miss rate. He’s struck out in just over 15 percent of his career plate appearances heading into 2025, compared to a robust 13.3 percent walk rate
The Mariners are now 31-26 after the win and lead the American League West by 0.5 games. They'll take on the Twins again on Sunday afternoon at 1:10 p.m. PT. Luis Castillo (SEA) pitches against Chris Paddack (MIN).
