SEATTLE (AP) — Julio Rodríguez hit a walk-off sacrifice fly and Cole Young added a three-run home run to help the Mariners beat the San Francisco Giants 4-3 in 10 innings on Saturday night, Seattle's first win since the All-Star break.

With one away and runners at first and third, Rodríguez hit a long fly ball to field off San Francisco reliever Dylan Smith (0-2). Giants left fielder Grant McCray had no play at home, and Victor Robles easily scored from third base.

Rodríguez was activated Saturday from the injured and served as Seattle’s designated hitter and went 0 for 4 with two strikeouts before his second career walk-off.

Bryce Eldridge opened the scoring with an RBI single in the third and the Giants took a 3-0 lead on solo shots by Rafael Devers, his 20th, and Willy Adames — his second in as many days — in the sixth. Devers notched his eighth major league season with at least 20 home runs.

Young hit a three-run shot off Giants starter Logan Webb in the seventh that made it 3-3 and broke Seattle's streak of 15 consecutive scoreless innings to start the second half of the season.

San Francisco’s three-game win streak, which tied a season-long, was snapped.

Mariners left-hander Jose A. Ferrer (3-1) pitched a scoreless 10th. Shortstop Colt Emerson made a diving stab to his right, popped up to his feet and threw to first base to get Luis Arraez and hold the automatic runner at second. Ferrer then got Bryce Eldridge to fly out and intentionally walked Casey Schmidt before he struck out Rafael Devers to end the threat.

The Mariners have seven walk-off wins this season, second most in MLB.

Mariners RHP Logan Gilbert (7-6, 3.32 ERA) starts Sunday in the finale of the three-game series opposite LHP Robbie Ray (8-6, 3.38).

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — One person was killed and 16 others wounded in an overnight Russian attack on Kyiv that included ballistic missiles, local authorities said.

The attack began at around 1:30 a.m. local time and continued for several hours, with explosions echoing across the capital.

Russia launched 41 missiles and 125 attack drones across Ukraine overnight, according to the Ukrainian air force. The attack included 25 ballistic missiles. Ukrainian forces intercepted and suppressed 108 drones and 18 missiles.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said most of the missiles had targeted the capital.

The strikes on Kyiv sparked fires in five districts of the city, damaging residential buildings, office and industrial sites, a dormitory and vehicles, according to Ukraine’s State Emergency Service.

Viktoria Shejko, 32, was taking shelter in the corridor of her apartment block with her seven children and husband when they heard the loud explosions.

“When the alarm started, we checked that there were ballistics, then went into the corridor. Then it started exploding one missile after another," she said.

“It’s very difficult psychologically, because lately they’ve been firing ballistic missiles at us very often. It used to be once a week or even more rarely, but now if not every day, then every other day," she added.

Rescue workers pulled four people from a burning private home in the Sviatoshynskyi district, while in the Shevchenkivskyi district they rescued residents from a burning three-story building. A fire in a nonresidential building was also contained. One person was later found dead.

Firefighters also responded to blazes in the Solomyanskyi, Desnianskyi and Dnipro districts.

Russia's defense ministry claimed the attack on Kyiv targeted sites linked to the Ukrainian military — including plants producing Flamingo drones and parts for Neptune guided missiles, as well as a postal terminal “used for storing dual-use goods and assembling drones, robotic systems and electronic warfare equipment.”

Russia has launched several large-scale attacks on Kyiv in recent weeks as Ukraine faces a shortage of Patriot air defense missiles, which are its most effective means of intercepting Russian ballistic missiles. Ukraine said it shot down at least 17 ballistic missiles in Sunday’s attack, indicating it may have replenished some of its dwindling stockpile of Patriot interceptor missiles. During a major Russian attack earlier this month, Ukraine was unable to intercept any ballistic missiles, exposing gaps in its air defense capabilities.

U.S. President Donald Trump has said he is prepared to grant Ukraine licenses to produce Patriot interceptor missiles, potentially bolstering Kyiv’s defenses against Russian ballistic missile attacks. However, the details and timeline for implementing the decision remain unclear.
