Mariners offense exploded scoring
six runs in the third inning. It has been
a while since they have done this.
Ty France hit a home run in the first
inning among his three hits on the
night. Ty has been struggling as of
late so hopefully this means we will
see the real Ty for a while.
The third inning Cal Raleigh led of
with a home run and the hits kept
on coming. Cal came up a second
time in the inning giving him a
chance for two home runs in the inning. Though he didn't have another
hit he was able to hit a fly ball to
score another run.
Carlos Santana added another couple
runs with a home run in the fifth inning.
George Kirby who was pitching well
went five innings. Kirby gave up two hits, a walk and struck out five.
The Mariners with a big lead decided
to give Chris Flexen some innings.
Only his third time in relief since
going to the bullpen. Flexen went the
final four innings and recording his
first save. He did give up three runs
late in the game. Hadn't pitch much
so is rusty.
Final Seattle 9 Detroit 3
It will be nice to see the Mariners go
on a roll beginning with Detroit.
Dylan Moore was put on the injured
list and Abraham Toro was recalled.
Toro played second base since JP
is hurt as well. In fact it looks like
Crawford is going on the injured list
to though not official yet. Word came
out shortstop Mason McCoy is
being recalled from Tacoma.
On Thursday the rosters will expand
to 28. With Dylan Moore out Taylor Trammel is expected to be recalled.
The Mariners can use another outfielder especially on defense.
Matt Boyd the Mariners acquired
at the deadline from the Giants
is expected to be activated on
Thursday as well. The veteran pitcher
and Seattle native has been on rehab.
Boyd is a lefty and the Mariners can
use him out of the bullpen.
Marco Gonzales is scheduled to
pitch Wednesday against Detroit
followed by Logan Gilbert on Thursday.
Robbie Ray and Luis Castillo should
start against Cleveland Friday and
Saturday. George Kirby should start
on Sunday. The Mariners have a
good rotation and with days off have
helped Ray and Castillo pitch against
the best teams like Cleveland. Go M's.
