Q: Did the AquaSox win or lose Saturday night against Spokane?
A: The Spokane Indians beat the Everett AquaSox 6-2 on Saturday, April 25, 2026, at Funko Field at Everett Memorial Stadium in front of 1,532 fans. Spokane jumped on Everett early with a three-run first inning and added three more in the second, and the AquaSox could only get back single runs in the second and sixth.
Some nights you score 11 runs and your 6-RBI guy carries the lineup home. Other nights, the visiting team gets a three-spot before you have your second sip of beer.
Saturday at Funko Field was the second kind. The Spokane Indians cracked open the AquaSox 6-2 in front of 1,532 fans, snapping Everett’s three-game winning streak and evening this six-game series with one to play. So before we get into the prospect watch and what to expect for Sunday Fun Day, let’s just call it: the first inning is what cost the Frogs this one.
How Spokane Did It
The Indians came out swinging. Ethan Hedges doubled in a run, Alan Espinal singled in a run, and Kelvin Hidalgo grounded into another RBI before the AquaSox had stepped to the plate. 3-0 Spokane after a half-inning is the kind of hole that’s tough to climb out of in a six-inning High-A pitcher’s duel — and once Tevin Tucker added an RBI single in the second, Hedges grounded another one in, and Espinal doubled up with his second RBI single of the night, it was 6-0 before most of the crowd had finished their nachos.
Everett got on the board in the bottom of the second. Carlos Jimenez — who had a 6-RBI night Thursday in this same series — drove in Josh Caron with an RBI groundout. The AquaSox didn’t score again until the sixth, when Felnin Celesten came home on a Spokane fielding error after Caron reached base.
The Bigger Picture: Series Heading to Sunday
This homestand has been the AquaSox’s best stretch of 2026 so far. They opened with a 5-2 Taylor Dollard gem on Tuesday, took the Wednesday game 7-5 with Eike’s 418-foot blast and Caron’s go-ahead knock, blew out the Indians 11-3 on Thursday behind Jimenez’s 6 RBIs, and walked Spokane off 2-1 on Friday on Axel Sanchez’s sac fly to cap Bryce Miller’s rehab assignment.
Saturday’s loss drops the homestand to 3-2. The series ends Sunday with a 4:05 PM first pitch — Sunday Fun Day with kids running the bases after the game and the usual postgame catch on the field. A series win is still on the table; the AquaSox just need to take the finale to lock it down.
Prospect Watch: What We Saw Saturday
This is the part where the fan voice has to balance against the fact that High-A is a development league. The night didn’t go Everett’s way on the scoreboard, but the kids we’re watching are still on the path.
Felnin Celesten got into scoring position and came around — small thing, but the M’s top-50 prospect has been trending the right direction in the early going of the homestand. He needs to find his power stroke; the singles will keep the OBP up.
Josh Caron is showing the catcher-power profile the system has been waiting for. He scored both AquaSox runs Saturday — one driven in, one on the error — and his bat keeps appearing in the recap copy.
Carlos Jimenez, fresh off a 6-RBI Thursday, drove in the only run the AquaSox would push across in the early innings. Production with runners in scoring position is the through-line for him this homestand.
What’s Next
Sunday wraps the series at 4:05 PM at Funko Field. After that, the AquaSox hit the road for a six-game set at Hillsboro Hops starting Tuesday, then come back home in early May. The Mariners’ Northwest farmhand watch continues — the Funko Field crowd has been treated to a lot of Bryce Miller buzz the last two weeks, and the next big-league rehab assignment that drops in this clubhouse will draw the same camera click that Friday’s did.
For now: 3-2 homestand, a series finale to play, and a roster full of names worth knowing.
