Mariners beat Verlander

Friday night the Mariners  beat the 
Houston Astros  in opening game
of the series 6-1.

Justin Verlander didn't  pitch well
giving up  four home runs giving
the Mariners  all six runs. Verlander 
did not look like his usual  self so
the Mariners  took advantage  of it. 

The Mariners  got to Verlander right
away with Julio Rodriguez  hitting a
two  run homer in the first  inning
followed by Kyle Lewis with one too.
It was Kyle's first of the season.

Chris Flexen  pitched his best game 
of the season as well giving up the
one run  in  the second inning.  Flexen 
was able to  go seven innings. Andre
Munoz  and Matt Festa  each went
an inning. The game ended with an
applause when Jose Ultuive flied
out to  Julio Rodriguez. Ultuive was
booed each time at the plate.

The Mariners  will play the Astros on
their next road trip. They begin road
trip in Baltimore on Tuesday for three
games followed by the Texas Rangers 
and the Astros. 

Hopefully  the Mariners will  go  on a 
good long winning streak. Go M's.
