Mariners Blow Out White Sox

The Seattle Mariners  have  now won 
seven games in a row and another 
opening game of a series  beating the
White Sox on the road 14-2.

Though very impressive  it would
have been nice to save some of those 
runs for another day.

Cal Raleigh  hit  two home runs and
had six rbi's.  In total  the Mariners 
had four home runs. Teo Hernandez 
and Dominic Canzone had the other
two. Hernandez had three rbi's. 

Every  player in the lineup had at 
least one hit in the game except  
Mike Ford and JP Crawford who
returned to the lineup coming
off a concussion.  Crawford 
did walk twice and scored both
times.

The Mariners  gave Julio the night
off. I am sure most fans thought 
why being the hottest hitter on the
planet. It was because of a minor
injury Sunday in the outfield. A
good thing they didn't  need him.

The Mariners  needed Luis Castillo 
to go deep into the game since they
used seven relievers after Emerson
Hancock had to  leave after the game
Sunday with shoulder strain. Luis went
seven innings which they hoped for.
He gave up one run which was in the
first inning after the Mariners  had five..

Tuesday's  game Bryan Woo  comes off
the injured list to start.. Hopefully he
will be able to go at least five and six
would be better. Hancock was placed
on the injured list. Hopefully  not bad 
enough where he can return after ten
days.

The Mariners are now two games
behind the Rangers as they lost
to the Diamondbacks on the road
4-3 on the road. Houston beat
the Red Sox so still half a game 
ahead of the Mariners.
