Texas Rangers 5-4 Thursday night
in the first game of the series.
It is important to win the first game
of a series especially in crunch time.
We have seen where the Mariners
hitting has weaknesses through
the season. This was more decision
making in my thinking and mental
errors. The Mariners will need to
make accessments during the offseason.
The Mariners tied in the game in the
fourth inning with a run then took the lead
in the fifth with three more runs. First
thing they couldn't add more runs.
The Mariners took Bryce Miller out
after the sixth inning at 84 pitches.
Troy Taylor gave up a home run however
the trouble came in the 8th when a
couple miscues allowed the Rangers
to score three runs with only one earned.
The difference in the game.
Although I thought that Miller should
have at least started the seventh it
was the eighth that cost them the
game. Decisions and mental mistakes
can't cost games like this one. The
Astros won as well so lost a game back once again.
Accessments need to be made after
the season. There is something wrong besides the pitching. We hope a turn
around happens. Go M's.
