Rodriguez went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 6-4 loss to the Angels.
Rodriguez went deep in the second inning to put the Mariners ahead temporarily. He had gone 11 games without a long ball, though he batted .364 in that span. For the season, the star outfielder is batting .250 with a .718 OPS, 22 homers, 70 RBI, 69 runs scored, 26 doubles and 22 stolen bases over 148 contests in what's been the most challenging campaign of his career.
