Mariners Lose In Extra Inning

The Houston Astros beat the Mariners
in the 10th inning 3-2.  George Kirby got off to a rough start giving up two 
runs in the first inning. The Astros
didn't score until the tenth inning.

Kirby went four innings giving up three
hits while walking one and striking out
seven. The relievers did a good job from then on until the tenth.  Brennan Bernardino recently called up pitched the tenth. Eugenio Suarez had a fielding error so losing run was unearned. He recorded the loss.

What I don't understand why put in
a new pitcher in this situation. I am sure they say because lack of relievers with lack of rest. They could have gone with Eric Swanson another inning. I
don't understand Servais making this 
decision. You think it would be important to win the final game of
the series against the Astros. This especially going to.play the Yankees Monday. 

The Mariners recalled Jarred Kelenic
from Tacoma and Jack Larsen from
Arkansas. Larsen started in right field.
Kelenic who arrived around game time
went in for Larsen. He went to center
field while Adam Frazier went from
center to right.

Julio Rodriguez and Dylan Moore each
went on the injured list. Julio's xray was negative which is good however
swelling in his wrist. We hope this means he will come back when the injured  time is done but the Mariners
are not taking a chance.

It looks like Kelenic will be in center
until Julio returns however there still
is the end of trading on Tuesday. Will
the Mariners make another trade by Tuesday stay tuned. 

Luis Castillo is expected to make his
Mariners debut in New York on Wednesday. Will the Mariners bump
a starter or not. We will see.
