night against the Oakland A's. Castillo
who had trouble in his previous five
outings had his fastball back up into
the high 90s. He went six shutout
innings walking two, striking out eight
and giving up four hits. Welcome back
Luis. We hope to see that over the next
month or so. Certainly will help get the
Mariners back into the race.
The Mariners offense had a good night
against the A's poor pitching. It started
off in good fashion with Kelenic hitting
a two run homer in the first inning with
Julio on base. In fact Julio had three
hits and look like his old self. We hope
this keeps the offense going. In the
second inning the Mariners added on
with Jose Caballero hitting a long
three-run homer.
The Mariners offense was able to add
six more runs in.the game including
three in the eighth. Oakland scored
their only two runs in the top of the
eighth. The Mariners offense we hope
still rolls during the rest of the Oakland
series through Thursday. Marco Gonzales
goes Tuesday night. We hope he does
better then in his last outing.
The Mariners take on the Pittsburgh Pirates
this coming weekend. The Pirates are having a good season however we hope
the Mariners can keep going. The Mariners
end the ten game homestand against the
Yankees. Should see large crowds against
them.
The next road trip will be three against
the Texas Rangers, two against the San
Diego Padres and three against LA Angels.
Go M's.
