an excellent job winning in extra
innings. Now they have won seven
straight games. This all done with
only with four hits. Bonus they won
the opening game of the series.
Final Mariners 3 NY Mets 2
The game went into 10 innings
The two runs each team had in
regulation were all on solo home runs.
The Mariners scored first with a home
run by Colt Emerson his third since
arriving on May 17 in the third inning.
The Mets scored their two home runs
in the fifth and sixth inning off Emerson Hancock. The only hits that he gave up
in six innings. Hancock didn't walk
any and struck out seven. So far Hancock
has been the Mariners best starter on the
season and why they are going to six man
rotation after doing the piggy back for
three times. This means that the Mariners
have seven relievers in the bullpen.
Josh Naylor tied in the bottom of the
seventh with his sixth home run of
the season. The Mariners four relievers
in the ball game didn't give up a hit.
Only thing keeping it not perfect was
Matt Brash hit a batter in the 8th.
In a surprise move Randy Arozarena
stole third base to help setup the
winning run on a single to left field
by Cole Young who has done quite
well in clutch situations.
This year the Mariners are doing
well in extra innings unlike they
have done in recent seasons.
Gabe Speier struck out two batters
in the top of the 10th to record
the victory. Logan Gilbert who
struggled for a short period has
started well in his last three goes
to the mound on Tuesday evening.
The Mariners are now 32 -29 and
are two and a half games above the
Texas Rangers leading the division.
The Mariners next road trip will begin
this Friday with three at Detroit
followed by four against the Orioles
in Baltimore. The ten game road
trip will end with three against the
Nationals in Washington DC. This
will be a tough trip however it will
be good if they can come home
with a winning record. Go M's.
