Guardians spoil Mariners’ 50th season opener with 6-4 victory

Chase DeLauter became the fifth player in Guardians history to homer in his first regular-season at-bat and hit two homers in the 6-4 win over Seattle.

  • The Cleveland Guardians defeated the Seattle Mariners 6-4 on Thursday, March 26, 2026, in their season opener, powered by rookie outfielder Chase DeLauter's two home runs.
  • DeLauter, the 16th overall pick in the 2022 MLB Draft, became the fifth player in Cleveland's 126-year franchise history to homer in his first career regular-season at-bat.
  • Jose Ramirez broke a tie with a two-run double in the seventh inning, while relievers Connor Brogdon and Cade Smith secured the victory for the Guardians.
  • The Mariners' Dominic Canzone hit two solo home runs in the loss, though the four-game series continues Friday with momentum shifting to Seattle's favor.
  • Manager Stephen Vogt praised DeLauter as "a special player," though he cautioned there will be a "learning curve" for the 24-year-old, even as early talk surrounds an AL Rookie of the Year campaign.
