I am sure we all would have liked the Mariners win Sunday’s game
to end the season however on a good point James Paxton shutout the Angels out
for six innings giving up only three hits and nine strike outs. I am sure under
other circumstances he would have stayed in the game.
Shae Simmons who was injured most of the season came in and gave
up four of the six runs scored in the seventh. Didn’t do well for his chance to
make the team next season and then James Pazos gave up the remaining two runs
and then the Mariners scored a run in the eighth inning with Mike Marjama
hitting his first major league home run. He will have a chance to be the
Mariners backup catcher next season. I don’t think Ruiz will be back. Of course
Zunino has the chance to continue to be the regular catcher however with Dipoto
we never know. I am sure we will see more trades during the off-season. We all
know they will go after getting more starting pitching. The bullpen wore out in
September. I will have my final report card coming out this week.
Now about the Seattle Seahawks and their game against the
Indianapolis Colts on Sunday night football; it was about a tale of two
different half’s. The first half nothing went right and they were trailing
15-10 while the second half they couldn’t do much wrong though they did have
some injuries and a turnover by Russell Wilson. Everything else made up for it.
Have more about Carson’s injury in the next couple days. Also about the running
back that came alive as well. The Seahawks may have a good running attack if
someone can stay healthy. I first thought to say everyone stays healthy but
someone sounds better and more sure thing.
I am sure every fan is getting tired of the Seahawks slow start
however the second half was like the old days especially on the defense side
with turnovers.
For those who didn’t watch or hear the game the Seahawks scored
the first touchdown to make the score 18-15 after a two point conversion that
happened after a penalty on the Colts when making the extra point. After the
Seahawks made turnover the Colts tied the score 18-18 however that was it for
the Colts. The Seahawks scored a team record 28 straight points to win 46-18.
The second half was a whole different ball game that was for
sure. We hope that the Seahawks will continue on the roll. The problem though
they play the Rams next week in Los Angeles. Two issues is that the Seahawks
are having problems starting on the road and the other is the Rams in
themselves. We all hope that the Seahawks can overcome both. Until tomorrow
about the Seahawks depending on injured reports and I will do a separate post
for the Mariners final report card. Have yourself a great day everyone.
