now after having a rough road trip.
Actually the trouble happened in
Boston. They were 3-3 before
facing the Red Sox, however, were
swept in Boston.
The Mariners had there opportunities
but their pitching especially the bullpen
was their downfall.
Sunday was another example. They went
into extra innings at 3-3. The Mariners
scored a run in top of the 10th. The
Red Sox tied at 4-4 before hitting a grand
slam home run making final 8-4 off of
Andre Munoz.
The Mariners come home to face the
Oakland A's. The Mariners recalled
Sam Haggerty from Tacoma in place of
Abraham Toro who went on the injured
list. Also, brought up outfielder Taylor
Trammell from Tacoma and designated
Steven Sousa Jr for assignment. Trammell
likely play right field against righties and
Dylan Moore against lefties. Not sure
how much Haggerty will play. He could see
some action at second base or in the outfield.
Now have to see whether the bullpen can
recover from the road trip. Marco Gonzales
will start Monday night against Oakland. Go M's.
