get one hit on the night by shortstop JP Crawford.
It was a single and he didn't stay on the base paths
long. The Mariners ended up losing 5-0.
Nick Margevicius made his first start for the
Mariners taking the spot of Kendall Graveman
who is on the injured with a bad neck. Nick
actually pitched well going three and a third
innings giving up no runs on three hits, one
walk and three strike outs.
The trouble happened when Anthony Misiewicz
came in. He was able to get out of the fourth inning.
In the fifth inning he gave up a couple runs. At
that point the Mariners were okay but Joey
Gerber in his third outing since being called up
when Graveman went on the injured list gave
up two runs in the fifth inning well as another
in the sixth inning.
The Mariners were able to shut out the Colorado
Rockies the rest of the way however they couldn't
get a single hit themselves.
Veteran right fielder Charlie Blackmon was the
big culprit having three hits and driving in three
runs Two of the hits were doubles. It was the
second straight game Blackmon did a number
on the Mariners.
The Mariners will have Justus Sheffield on the
mound Sunday afternoon. We have to see whether
he can stop the bleeding and go five or six innings.
The Mariners will be going on the road this coming
week to Arlington Texas to take on the Rangers in
a three game series in their new stadium which has
a retrackable roof like T-Mobile Park.
The Mariners will have a day off finally on Thursday
then play the Houston Astros Friday thru Sunday then
move on to LA to take on the Dodgers. See if the
Mariners offense can turn around along with their
bullpen. A lot to ask for. Go M's.
