Mariners End Skid

It wasn't easy to however the Mariners 
ended their three game losing streak. 
With injuries piling on top of that. 

Final  Mariners 5   Braves  4

The Mariners really needed this win.
Again they were without  Cal Raleigh.
Not being specific he has soreness 
on his right side. We see whether he 
will be back on Tuesday or they put
him on the injured list. 

Logan Gilbert  went six innings.
He gave up a home run leading.
off the game then did fine until
the sixth inning where he gave
up three home runs with the last
two back to back leading 4-0. 
I wonder if Logan telegraphs 
his pitches since most of his
runs always are give up on home
runs. 

In the bottom of the sixth JR Ritchie
a rookie who happens to have been
born in Seattle and went to Bainbridge 
High School. He walked Arozarena 
and Canzone when Luke Raley hit
a three run homer which made it
promising.   The Braves lifted Ritchie 
with no outs.  Mitch Garver walked 
and after getting Leo Rivas out  JP
Crawford had a two run home run 
to take the lead.

Jose Ferrer came in the seventh 
recording  although he did give up 
a single he started the eighth 
getting one out. Eduardo Bazardo 
got the final two outs  though he did
give up a hit. Munoz came in the 9th
and recorded the save. 

Tuesday George Kirby will start 
for the Mariners. The Mariners 
before the game had to put reliever 
Gabe Speier on the injured list 
with inflammation to his left shoulder.
The Mariners activated lefty Jose
Suarez who they had claimed on 
waivers from the Braves. Also they
brought back up lefty Josh Simpson 
who they had just sent down without 
seeing any action. Cole Wilcox was
sent down in that move. The Mariners 
 now have three lefties to cover while
Speier is out for now. Go M's.
