Mariners Beat Rockies Tuesday

 Seattle 2 Colorado 1

Pitcher of the Game: Chris Flexen had another
fantastic game pitching for the Mariners on
Tuesday night. Flexen has done well on all
his pitches including the curve. Have to say

right now the Mariners number two starter

behind Yusei Kikuchi. Flexen went six and

two-thirds innings giving up four hits, a 

home run to CJ Cron in the seventh inning.

The bullpen again did a good job not giving

up a hit.

Player of the Game:  Shed Long Jr hit his

second home run in two games in the eighth

inning so it wasn't a walk-off but the next

best thing. 

The  Mariners had six hits on the night with

no players having more than one hit. 

Up next Wednesday afternoon the Mariners 

and Rockies play their second and last game

of the series. Justus  Sheffield will go for

the Mariners. We hope he does better than

he did in his last outing. A good thing the

Rockies have the worst record in the majors

on the road having only five wins while losing

28. A good sign for Sheffield. 

The Mariners will have Thursday off then have

a weekend series in Chicago against the White

Sox. Go M's.
