So pretty much like what Seattle did last night, except they got a single run out of it? And they lost, btw. Baseball happens.
Tomorrow could be the only chance Fiers will get to stay on the rotation. Don't give up more than 6 runs and we will be fine.
Per Fresno beat writer on Twitter: McHugh had walked out to the mound to begin the second, threw a couple of warm up pitches, called out the trainer, then was removed.
The HOU 3-Stooge parade continued with another OTBP. Don't recall the specific play.. just remember it happened.
Giles causes me insane anxiety. I just never know what the **** is gonna happen when he steps up to close. It's only the first series, but really bad start from Altuve, Beltran, and Gurriel. Our 2-6 should be giving us something every game. They're too good not to. And we haven't seen that so far. Really like the addition of Aoki though. Dude is a fighter.
Lost in all this is that the Mariners look like an 88-90 win team. The offense struggled but the Mariners pitching is also pretty good.
