Mariners No-Hit Again

I thought the Mariners had a good
chance to add more victories against
the Detroit Tigers at home but it
isn't meant to be. We hope they are
able to salvage a win on Wednesday
afternoon before heading to San Diego.

The Seattle Mariners were no-hit by
Detroit Tiger right hander Spencer 
Turnbull on Tuesday night. This is
the second time the Mariners have
been no-hit this season. Unless the
Mariners offense comes alive it 
won't be the last.

Currently the Mariners top of the
lineup is doing the job for the most
part over the season. Only JP Crawford
has done the job in the bottom half 
this after a slow start. You look at 
Tuesday's lineup not player from
six through nine are hitting over
.200. On occasion one of them 
has an effect in the game. The 
Mariners can't rely on One thru
five to do all the work.

We hope that Ty France can be
back soon. He can help out along
with JP Crawford hitting fifth
or sixth in the lineup. 

Justin Dunn was able to go five
and two-thirds innings giving up 
two runs on five hits, walking 
only two and striking out nine.
In many cases he would have
won the game.

The Mariners still had the chance
to win when Dunn left the game.
Drew Steckenrider did a fine job
going one and one-thirds innings
without giving up a hit and striking
out one. The final two relievers
not so lucky giving up three runs
putting the game out of reach even
if the offense had been able to get
a hit.

Logan Gilbert will make his second
start Wednesday night for the end of
the series. We hope not only will he
do a good job the offense can come
alive and score some runs. Go M's.
