George Kirby delivered a masterclass against the Braves, hurling seven innings of stellar baseball, but the Mariners' offense crumbled under pressure, striking out 16 times in a tight 3-2 loss. The bright spot was Kirby’s performance, reflected in his +.16 WPA, yet the late-game collapse, spearheaded by Andrés Muñoz allowing a crucial ninth-inning homer to Matt Olson, raised serious concerns.
