Should have been a walk. Probably left Felix in too long, but got away with it if they get the hold in the 9th.

 

[WizardHawk]

okay, they easily got away with leaving Felix in too long.

cishek doing well for having a labrum tear

nice win for the king

Good to see the M's put up a nice cushion finally. I was wrong about the Astros, they have been very helpful against the Orioles, just 1 game behind Baltimore...

It was nice to see the M's pull away from the Brewers towards the end of the game as opposed to letting the 9th inning be more interesting than it needed to be. More of that would be very much appreciated. I'm going to game 3 for my birthday and I'm a bit sad that I missed Felix by one day, but here's hoping we get a solid start from Miranda and the bats pick up where they left off towards the end of this game.

Paxton went three innings and threw 58 pitches last night. I guess his vagina is okay....for now.

If last night's game wasn't the best overall team performance of the season then it's at least in the discussion. Felix was as good as he's been all year, the defense was perfect, and the offense got it going and pulled away late in the game. A good 1-2-3 confidence booster for Cishek, too.

1 game back. Time to get that 9th straight home win. Remember when we couldn't play well at home?

New majority owner taking over was the best news EVER this year... But this late season push is something that's been uncharted territory for the M's for a very long time... It's good to see for sure...

The season has been all about the schedule. It was very favorable in April and May, brutal in June and July, and favorable again in August and September. June and July were the keys to the season in my opinion. Previous Mariner teams would have gotten buried in those two months, and never recovered. But this Ms team stayed close enough to the pack so that they could catch up as the schedule swung back in their favor.

What I like is they're scoring runs in multiple innings throughout the game rather than having one big inning and then nothing much the remainder of the game... That's putting pressure on their opponents causing them to have to go deep on their bench w/ their pitching staff...

Rangers, Blue Jays and Red Sox all lost.

Rangers, Blue Jays and Red Sox all lost.

Orioles/Astros is finally underway, hopefully Houston can help out too and have all the teams ahead of the M's lose. Regardless it's a good day as long as the Mariners hold this lead.

 

[Destroydacre]

They never make it easy do they?

 

[Destroydacre]

FUCK

 

[Destroydacre]

Another fucking blown save. This team would be winning the division if they could fucking close out games.

 

[Anointed One]

Yeah, not sure why Riz keeps saying this bullpen has been amazing... 4 of the past 5 games, they haven't been very good...
