• Haggerty, on scoring the go-ahead run: “As I see the ball drop, my first thought was, 'Keep us in the inning and stop the double play.' So I tried to get a throw home, they threw it home, and now I'm trying to stay in the rundown to get [Moore] to third, to get Julio to second and give us another chance. I turned my head and I didn't see anybody at home plate, and I went for it.”
• Rodríguez, on creating pressure on the basepaths: “I feel like that’s something we do really well. We take pride in that. If you hear our conversations all the time, we’re just talking about how proud we are when we run the bases. That’s just another way to make things happen. It’s really valuable because whenever guys like Sam, [Moore] and me are on the bases, you know [opposing pitchers] are thinking about it.”
• Mariners manager Scott Servais, on capitalizing: “We caught a few breaks. You have to take advantage of them. We put ourselves in a position by the pitching and how we played to keep the game right there and create some havoc later on. I guess that’s ‘chaos ball’ at its finest.”
• Angels manager Phil Nevin, on the Halos’ defense: "It was awful. We just made some bad decisions, some bad throws. We didn't execute a rundown. Yeah, it wasn't good."

Mariners' wild 9th yields a win 'to remember'
ANAHEIM -- Chaos ball is back. The Mariners needed all nine innings, but they finally pulled away for a 6-2 victory over the Angels by playing their brand of nail-biting baseball. With hardly any action for much of Monday's pitching duel between Luis Castillo and Shohei Ohtani at Angel Stadium,
