the Mariners rebound by winning the
opening game against the Otioles in
Baltimore 6-3. Now the road trip is
2-2.
Before the game JP Crawford sent
on the injured list. Colt Emerson
expected to start at shortstop however
he was stretched. He had back tightness.
I guess it can happen to a 20 year old.
The Mariners brought up Ryan Bliss
to take Crawford spot on roster. So
Cole Young moved to shortstop and
Ryan Bliss at second base.
The Orioles scored first with a
sacrifice fly by Pete Alonso. Ryan
Bliss tied in the top of the 5th
however the big blow Josh Naylor
hit a grand slam home in the 5th
too.
In the 7th the Orioles scored on a wild
pitch. Then in the top of the 8th
Randy Arozarena singled scoring
Naylor. Randy is having a very good
season so far. He had three hits in
this game.
The Orioles scored their final run
in the bottom of the 8th.
Emerson Hancock who is pitching
well for the Mariners went five
innings giving up three hits, one run,
two walks and three strike outs.
Though it would have been nice
for Hancock to go six innings or
so I think we would take this everyday
he starts.
Cooper Criswell pitched the 6th
and one out in the 7th.He gave up
the one run. Matt Brash came in
to get the final two outs. He did
walk a batter but struck out one.
Eduardo Bazardo pitched the 8th
and gave up the run as well. Lately
he has been giving up runs but
hasn't hurt the Mariners that much.
Andre Munoz who has struggled lately
pitched the 9th. He walked one and
struck out two. No hits though. The
season he has a 5.40 era. We hope
he can settle down. The Mariners
could use Jose Ferrer and Gabe Speier
as closer. Most likely if the other
team is mainly facing left handed
hitters. Matt Brash could close too.
Munoz needs to come in earlier
when the Mariners have a good lead
to pitch more often and get his
pitching in order.
Tuesday Logan Gilbert starts.
Hope he can go six plus. Go M's.
