the Los Angeles Angels 4-2. As I have said
winning the opening game of a series is
important. A four game series maybe more.
The Angels scored first in the first inning.
Mike Trout got his only hit in the first
inning a double then scored. The Mariners
walked him three times which was a
good thing.
Logan Evans starting went five innings
giving up the one run.
The Mariners scored three runs in the
fifth inning with Julio Rodriguez home
run to tie the game and then Randy
Arozarena hit a two-run homer. In the 8th
inning Jorge Polanco hit the third home
run.
Carlos Vargas who has struggled lately
was the second reliever in the game.
Gabe Speier came in for Vargas and
got the third out. Brash and Munoz
finished up.
News came out before the game
that the Mariners got Josh Naylor
from the Arizona Diamondbacks
to play first base and maybe some
dh. Now we see who no longer be
on the roster. Luke Raley will likely
be out in the outfield. He and Dominic
Canzone will be in right field. Of
course if they are not moved with
Naylor acquisition. Naylor might
be in Anaheim Friday or Saturday.
The Diamondbacks received left
hander pitcher Brandyn Garcia
who made two appearances
recently for the Mariners. They
got right handed pitcher Ashton
Izzi who was at Everett. He is the
Mariners #16 prospect. We wish
the two the best to their new future.
Will the Mariners pick up another
bat before the trading deadline
or pick up a reliever. A veteran
reliever who could step in with
Matt Brash and Andre Munoz.
Pitch seventh thru the ninth.
Vargas has been pitching a lot
this year so it would be nice if
he could pitch less often. Go M's.
