Sweet baby jesus let us score more than 0 runs for Felix this time.

Mariners finally having a good season and wouldn't you know it: Their NL division assignment for the season is the toughest division in the NL. They have to play the Cubs, Pirates and Cardinals 6 times each. Several mediocre teams in the NL West this year. Giants are the only team that has looked half way decent so far.

Odds of the game happening tonight seem pretty slim according to Shannon Drayer.

Rain out?

It's not looking great from what I can see, 70% chance of rain isn't good.

Definitely some tough teams. Then again, the Orioles hadn't lost a series at home yet this year until the Ms came to town.

The guy who walked because the umpire sucks ends up scoring, yay human element!

 

[Destroydacre]

Really M's? That relay throw from Marte to Iannetta was atrocious, and damn it I could have fielded that ball.

 

[Destroydacre]

Ugh...I love the NL game. Watching a guy walk the .200 hitting 8 hitter who is on pace for 170 k's to get to the pitcher. What great "strategy!"

 

[Destroydacre]

This is starting to feel like one of those typical Mariners games we've seen so many times the past few years. Hope they prove me wrong.

 

[Msfann]

4 pitch walk there for the reds and 3 of them were strikes. And once again that bulls**t walk scores

that's 2 runs the ump has helped the reds with today.

 

[gohusk]

Kuma's washed up. He was great but his arm is obviously shot.

 

[SeattleCoug]

Ready to fake a DL stint for Kuma and see what Paxton has

 

[Destroydacre]

Another awful night batting w/RISP

 

[Tech_God]

Alright! 0 outs, bases loaded! Let's go!!!!

 

[SeattleCoug]

thank God for the Reds bullpen

 

[Destroydacre]

Nice to see the M's come back and grab the lead. Lee came up with a big hit the other way after Cruz and Seager failed to put the ball in play with the bases loaded and less than 2 outs. 1-11 w/RISP is still awful and that type of hitting has been far to frequent recently but the Mariners still could pull a win out of this. I hope they do, this would be a nice one to get.
