Mariners pitcher Bryan Woo threw seven strong innings, allowing only one hit – a solo home run by Brent Rooker in the first. Seattle defeated the Athletics 3-2, as per KOMO News. Woo helped the Mariners win, with solo home runs from Eugenio Suárez, Josh Naylor, and Jorge Polanco. In the seventh inning, Naylor hit his 100th career home run. After the game, Woo said, "I felt it was important to come in and set the tone after such a bad road trip,” as reported by MLB

Mariners pitcher Bryan Woo has been efficient on the mound, consistently pitching at least six innings per start while allowing no more than two walks. His performance has drawn attention and comparisons to some of the top pitchers in MLB history. He is the only pitcher ever to open a season with 24 consecutive starts meeting this criterion. "I’m never trying to fool around,” Woo stated in an interview with The New York Times, “I’m going right after you."

Mariners pitcher Bryan Woo continues to rely on his strategy of pitching deep into games while staying efficient, allowing the bullpen some relief. Reliever Gabe Speier said, “It’s nice being out there in the bullpen knowing that the first five, six innings, you’re just able to kinda hang out,” in an interview with New York Times. Woo’s consistent performance, along with the power hitting from players like Eugenio Suárez, is helping the Mariners remain competitive as they aim to strengthen their position for the season.
