I just landed back in the states as I've been in Toronto for the last week on business. I've been waiting for this series for awhile, always a good one that has the potential to get the guys extra fired up tonight. Let's get the first one tonight!!

 

[Tapey]

Lets fuck the Blue Jays right in their face

i've gotten to a point where i don't even bother watching games when the blue jays are in town

not really fun to watch their team have home field advantage

Nice that the M's have the lead, that said yet another baserunning blunder from this team. Hope that one doesn't bite them.

 

[Destroydacre]

The offense has been better the last few weeks, no question about that, but these guys still swing at a lot of garbage pitches nowhere near the strike zone.

Yeah but on the other hand it's always nice when they come down here to watch the Blue Jays lose.

 

[WizardHawk]

Well that was a fun one to watch. All those screaming jay fans spending all that money to come watch their team lose in the Safe.

Man, you missed a good one if you passed this time.

Great win to shut them up! Love it

Nice win. Dyson was pretty awesome in that game. Nice play in the outfield to gun down Pillar, from his knees to Motter and Motter with a dime to Zunino.

Mitch Haniger with a line-drive solo HR *over* the R Yard!! 402 feet to left field. Rainiers lead, 8-0!

Arguably both teams most consistent pitchers are squaring off tonight. Should be a fairly low scoring game. I hope the difference isn't one of the seemingly every game boneheaded mistakes this team is known for.

With Paxton going out tomorrow this has to be a game that Toronto is in a must have situation. Haniger might be back on the team by that game as well.

Just go find a way to get it done tonight and see what it feels like to be above .500 for a moment.

That game should have counted as a road win. Anytime the Mariners win at Safeco against the Blow Jays, Red Sux, or Fraudkees, it should count as a road win.

One often overlooked reason for Mariners recent surge: Bullpen's ERA of 1.18 over last 18 games is best in MLB in that stretch.

Felix Hernandez will be limited to 65 pitches in rehab start tomorrow for Tacoma. Likely 1 more rehab outing before rejoining #Mariners

The bullpen was terrible for awhile and it really hurt the M's. Now they are doing a very nice job. To start the season I was ready to nuke the bullpen.

 

[cezero]

fuck, i tune in for pre game, and all they show is blue jays fans.

taunting me, lol.

i'm leaving in about 20 minutes, and hope to see the m's get some runs in the 1st.

sorry for the jinx.

 

[Destroydacre]

Hey, about time the other team boneheads the M's a run.
