Mariners Have Another Spring Win

The Mariners continue to win in

spring training beating the Reds

7-6 Thursday night.

What was good in the game Cal 

Raleigh hit a two run homer in the

first inning and Ryan Bliss a three

run homer in the seventh. What 

was really good both home runs

were with two outs.

Another good thing was the Mariners

scored the two home runs while 

they were behind. They scored a run

beforehand in both innings.

What was bad they scored only in 

the first and seventh innings. The 

Reds on the other hand scored four

different innings. Most of the time

a team will win scoring in four 

innings. 

The Mariners rebounded from a

terrible start by the pitching as well.

The starter was not any of the five

who will be in the rotation during the

season.

I am sure the Mariners learned they

must add on a run a few times along

with big innings to. Last season the 

Mariners had a losing record in one

run games. Making the playoffs the

Mariners will need to have a winning

record in one run games and hopefully

have fewer ones. Go M's.

In other local sports both Gonzaga

and Washington State each won

their first round in the men's basketball

tournament on Thursday. Gonzaga's

was a blow out while the Cougars had

to come from behind to win. Drake was

ahead by eight points around the six minute mark remaining in the game.

The Cougars brought in a shorter 

lineup and the defense sparked the

offense to win. Both teams will play

agsin on Saturday to see if they can

go to the round of sixteen. Wish both

the best.
