As is now old news, Omar Narvaez hit a walk-off homer in Saturday’s win against the White Sox. And this weekend’s series ended in even more exciting fashion as today the Mariners walked off for their second straight contest in a rollercoaster, come-from-behind win.

On one hand, it capped off the rarity of a Mariners catcher hitting .280 on the season and showing as much power as he has.
