The game was notable for its lack of live broadcast options, with fans limited to later radio coverage. Both teams used multiple pitchers, with Seattle utilizing ten and Kansas City seven, with most of the game's sixteen runs scoring after the fifth inning.
Bryan Woo impressed in his first outing, throwing 28 pitches over 1.1 innings. The righty primarily relied on his fastball, throwing eleven four-seamers and seven sinkers at normal velocities. His sweeper served as his main offspeed pitch, and he recorded a strikeout with his lone changeup.
