Mariners 10, Nationals 2: Miller Goes Eight as Seattle Routs Washington

The lead

June 12, 2026 - Washington - Bryce Miller worked a career-high eight innings with 23 pitching FP in AthX Engine scoring, rookie Colt Emerson homered in a five-run second inning, and the Seattle Mariners routed the Washington Nationals 10-2 after a long rain delay, per the Associated Press recap on CBS Sports.

Seattle finished second on the Friday slate at 21 team FP.

How the game turned

The Mariners scored five times in the second. Dominic Canzone tripled to drive in two runs, a sacrifice fly made it 3-0, and Emerson homered to center to score another run.

Seattle added three more in the fifth and solo shots from Canzone and Josh Naylor in the late innings. Washington managed only four hits, with James Wood and Dylan Crews homering for the Nationals' runs.

Pitching and matchup notes

Miller (3-0) allowed two runs on four hits with seven strikeouts and no walks over eight frames. He did not permit another runner past first base after Wood's fourth-inning homer.

Randy Arozarena left in the third with a leg injury while running through first base. Manager Dan Wilson described it as a possible hamstring strain, spasm, or cramp.

Bats that changed the board

Canzone finished with 12 hitting FP in AthX Engine scoring after the second-inning triple and an eighth-inning homer. Miller's 23 FP start carried most of Seattle's daily pitching value.

AthX Engine fantasy angle

AthX Engine graded the Mariners at 21 team FP in a complete performance built on length and early offense. Eight-inning starts with minimal traffic register strongly in daily scoring, separate from dynamic pricing.

What comes next

The Mariners and Nationals continue the series Saturday at Nationals Park, per the MLB schedule.
