Seattle Mariners were shut out
out by the LA Angels 4-0.
Takeaways
Pitching: Logan Gilbert again
pitched well giving up two runs
on four hits in six innings. The only
blemish was giving up the fifth
home run to Mike Trout in the series
a two-run shot. Still wonder why pitch
to Trout especially after two home runs in the series opener. Trout now has 33
home runs in his career in Seattle.
The relief pitchers gave a run in each
the seventh and eighth inning. There is
a good chance Ken Giles will be activated. Who is sent down or released will be interesting.
Matt Festa was sent down as Tommy Milone wasvbrought up on Saturday for the double header. Also Justus Sheffield wasbbrought up as an extra arm. Both pitched in the second game. Sheffield was sent back down to Tacoma on Sunday.
Offense which was terrible in the series
except game two when Robbie Ray
pitched well. The Mariners scored
eight runs in that game. Only scored
three runs total in the other four games.
The Mariners now will have to figure
out what do about the offense. Fortunately the Mariners have Monday
off before facing the A's for three
games in Oakland and three more
against the Angels in Anaheim.
Going on the road might be a good
thing. The Mariners were 3-8 in
the eleven games in home stand.
We will see what Dipoto and Servais
can figure out in this six games.
The Mariners are now 29-39 and
back now in fourth place three games
behind the Texas Rangers. What
a disappointing series against the
Angels.
