So Abreu pitched 3 times LAST WEEK and that's your reasoning why he wouldn't be able to pitch tonight?
Urquidy is quietly 9-4 (and should be 10-4 had Dusty yanked him after 6 innings against Oakland last weekend).
The Mariners had no chance today. As soon as our boys landed and saw how excited the fans were, they got rock hard and started twirling their mustache like dick dasterdly.
Very impressive win. Coming off a double-header after a shortened break, followed by a night flight two-thousand miles to Seattle to face a full-break team riding a 14-game winning streak. This was the game we were supposed to lose and we crushed them. MVP: Jose Urquidy for going 6 innings and saving the bullpen, especially after struggling through five. Shout out to the offense in general for giving enough run support to allow mistakes. Doesn't get easier either, still had to use 4 relievers tonight. Need JV to get us length for the early start tomorrow. Also the offense needs to show up to the point where we can get away with throwing Abreu in there.
If you didn’t catch it go back and watch/listen to the Mariners broadcast on that line out that Peña grabbed. Broadcaster said “that’s a base hit to CF”! Oh wait
