by twice as many points as the
White Sox who won 41 games last
year.
The White Sox scored 18 while the
Mariners had 9. It really that close
since Mariners score 7 in the bottom
of the ninth.
The hightlight in the 9th was a blast
by outfielder Lazaro Montes. It brought
the Mariners fans still there a big
applause. He showed what the M's
hope to see in the next couple years
as he is is only 20 and he doesn't
turn 21 until around World Series
time.
We know hits are not to important
at this time however Dylan Moore
doesn't have a hit yet. Ryan Bliss
had a double and scored a run
in the ninth. Have no idea who
manager Wilson thinks will be
the second baseman when the
season starts. I would prefer
Moore who come off the bench
and have an occasional start.
A lot could depend who he hits
well off as well.
Tyler Locklear hitting well though
only has nine at bats though 4
hits. I would like to see him on
the team but we know there isn't
much room on the roster. There
is six starters set and second
plus first will be platooned to
some degree and Garver looks
to be the back up catcher. Take
two second and first baseman
along with Garver makes eleven.
That makes two other spots
left and one most likely go to
Mitch Haniger. It depends
whether Dylan Moore is considered
among the 11. The last spot
may go to Locklear or Rivas.
We could be surprised by another.
If Cole Young is one of the second
baseman than Ryan Bliss be the
equation for the last spot.
Most of the runs were off
relievers who won't be on the
team. Andre Munoz made his
first appearance in a game
and gave a run. Hancock gave
up two as the starter so that
leaves 15 runs by relievers who
won't be on the team at least
starting the season.
In basketball the Washington
Huskies lost to Indiana 78-62.
The Huskies have lost four in
a row and face USC and Oregon
this coming week. USC lost
big today to the Ducks who
have won five in a row.
The Huskies could beat USC
however to make the Big Ten
tournament they would have
to beat Oregon as well and have
some luck to get in.
Both Gonzaga and WSU play
tonight so give details later.
