Mariners Sweep Astros

After the last road trip where the Mariners 
went 1-5 and could have been 5-1 they
beat the Astros in all four games. 

Monday afternoon the Mariners beat the
Astros 6-2. They had a great opportunities 
to score more runs however the Mariners 
pitching shut the doors. 

It was primarily George who pitched into
the eighth inning and left with two outs.
George only walked one batter and that
was Alvarez at the end of his pitching.
He struck out seven batters. Matt Brash 
came in to get the last out of the 8th 
and  Cole Wilcox pitched the 9th just
giving up one walk.

Josh Naylor who has gotten off to a
rough start was the player of the game.
He hit his first home run in the first
inning after Cal and Julio had singles.
In the third inning he had a second 
homer with Donovan on base.  Luke 
Raley had his second three hit game 
in a row.  

The Mariners are still in 4th place in
the division however only one game
behind the A's in first place. The 
Mariners now go play the Padres 
for three so if they can do better 
on this road trip who knows. The
Mariners record is now  8-9. 

The Astros are in a bad place not
only  swept by the . Mariners they
continue losing players to the 
injured list. I am sure most Mariners 
fans are not to sympathetic to
them.

Bryan Woo will start the first game
Zin San Diego so we hope for a good
start. Go M's.
