display in the second inning of Thursday night
game when they scored four runs including
a three run homer by Dylan Moore.
It was down hill from there. George Kirby
gave up two runs in the second and third
inning. Two more runs in the sixth, seventh
and eighth to put the game away.
Trevor Story who the Mariners tried to sign
during the off-season had three home runs.
What a way to make a statement.
Now to the pitching. It doesn't look like George
Kirby is ready for the big time yet. Wonder if the
Mariners make a move.
Interesting thing happened that I have never
seen before George Kirby came out to start the
sixth inning however, manager Scott Servais
came to take him out before facing a batter.
It turns out the pit her has to face at least one
batter being on the mound. Kirby ended up giving
up a double. Sergio Romo came in but didn't have
a good inning.
The Mariners still had a chance being down two
runs but in the seventh inning brought in their
secondary pitchers. My opinion they should have
brought in one of their top four relievers.
This isn't the first time it has happened this
season. What the Mariners need to do is go
and pick up another reliever matching the top
four. Oh yes the final score Boston 12 Seattle 6.
Oh by the way Julio Rodriguez had three hits
including a home run in the 9th inning. He is
now batting .270.
I hope the offense by the Red Sox will go down
the rest of the series so Mariners have a chance
to win.
