During a game on April 22, 2026, Seattle Mariners pitcher Logan Gilbert experienced an unusual play when a line drive hit by Oakland Athletics' Carlos Cortes lodged in his jersey, clocked at 107.8 mph. This bizarre incident occurred with a runner on third base, and although Cortes was credited with a single, the play was ruled dead, allowing Nick Kurtz to stay at third and Shea Langeliers to advance to second. Gilbert was briefly assessed by Mariners athletic trainer Kyle Torgerson but continued pitching. He ultimately allowed two earned runs in the inning, one from a sacrifice fly by Tyler Soderstrom and another from an RBI single by Jeff McNeil. Gilbert returned to the mound for the second inning, demonstrating resilience despite the unusual circumstances.
