The Seattle Mariners outlasted the Detroit Tigers in a maraton 15-inning decisive Game 5 of the ALDS. They celebrated long into the night where their star Cal Raleigh’s girlfriend Hannah Shimek had the perfect 1-word reaction post.

It took an entire team effort for the Mariners to advance to the ALCS for the first time since 2001. The T-Mobile crowd anxiously sat through chance after chance before the team finally came through in the bottom on the 15th on a bases loaded single.

“The Big Dumper” as they call him Raleigh finished the game 1-5 with two walks, but he’s a major reason the team has made it this far with 61 home runs to lead the league and smash the all-time record of 48 homers by a catcher in the regular season.

He also had the perfect throw on a Tigers base runner in a big moment of Game 5.
