Mariners win 10 to four they improv to 73 and 71 on the season they take two of three in St Louis against the Cardinals go over the scoring plays first inning big dumper singles to Center to score Julio one- nothing Luke rley doubles to Center to score Randy Ros Arena and Cal Raleigh three nothing I like that I called him big dumper for this one play and Cal Raleigh for the other three nothing and then Mitch Garver singles to left to score Luke rley and Justin Turner 5 nothing at the end of the first Mariners are not done second inning Randy rosarina homers to left to score Julio seven nothing in the middle of the second Cardinals do get two Jose fine singles to Center to score Nolan Aron and Ivon Herrera 72 Mariners get add-ons in the fifth with a Jorge palano Homer to Center to score Justin Turner nine to2 eighth inning Jordan Walker doubles to left to score Matt Carpenter who I still can't believe is still playing and Ivon Herrera 94 in the n my son JP Crawford doubles to left to score Luke rley 104 Mariners win they get the series win I hope it matters I hope it matters uh there's one obvious negative here H Luis Castillo leaves with an injury it's a hamstring issue it was pretty clear that he was in pain his 59th pitch of the game and I thought it was an ankle at first but it's clearly lower body they diagnosed him with the hamstring strain relatively quickly they're going to have an MRI Monday I will be shocked if Lis Castillo makes his next start hamstring strains just especially for pitchers are not something you're just coming back from well for anybody you know he has five days but I would guess that Luis Castillo is not going to return soon I'm not saying he's out for the year that'll depend on the grade and the severity of the strain that's bad that is very bad and disappointing because Luis Castillo you know 3.64 ER you take a look at it and say ah Lis Cas steel has been so much better than that and know and on top of that he's a good dude who we don't want to see get hurt so that's a bummer I would imagine Emerson Hancock takes his spot in the rotation if they can do that they do have an off day tomorrow so you can Finagle a little bit you can make the adjustments but I would still be really surprised of Luis Castillo in fact I won't be shocked at all if he threw his last pitch of 2024 hope I'm wrong but we'll find out more Monday uh Ard bazardo is just bad I don't understand their infatuation with him okay hopefully that's all we see him pitching is games where the outcome is decided before he pitches he's not a good pitcher not a good pitcher whatsoever you know who's good simply Seattle best stuff for the Mariners the Seahawks the Kraken the storm the Sounders huskys cougars find it all simply Seattle inter

description to make it nice and easy for you So speaking of the Seahawks I am recapping every Seahawk game this year it's something I decided to do last week I think it's going to be a blast for those of you unfamiliar I Do cover the NFL for NBC Sports I've covered college football for them for years I I feel confident talking about it and I love the Seahawks and I want to do it so I'd appreciate you guys checking those out I will also totally understand if you have no interest in watching those videos totally understand not every Mariner fan is a Seahawk fan not every Seahawk fan is a Marin fan but I'd really appreciate if you are a person who happens to like the Seahawks checking that out it's on my YouTube page I really appreciate it uh after Castile leaves you know bizard of struggles the rest of the bullpen did not Trent thoron gives you two scoreless innings that is what Trent thoron is for that those multi- ining low Leverage is situations that's where I feel the most confident using Trent thoron Taylor cetto nice outing from him he's looked a lot better lately as well again not a high leverage thing but I think that Taylor cetto does a nice job in that mid leverage you got a couple lefties coming up he's fine he's just not a high leverage guy and JT shua did the job as well you know JT shua had his ups and downs since the trade I think there's been enough good to say that it's been a fine trade I think it's been fine my dog disagrees she's snoring I'm going to go wake her up because it's really annoying I mean I love her more than anything in this world but it's super annoying and she sleeps a lot she's a 13-year-old girl I miss my 14-year-old um positives offensively a ton couldn't have started the game out any better five straight hits and again I love Julio in the leadoff spot you know he gets hits in his first two at bats struggles in the next three you'll take it you'll take it Ops almost up to 700 now which it's not good enough not even close to good enough and a lot of you will roll your eyes that I even mentioned it I think there's been enough good from Julio Rodriguez in 2024 and more than enough good in 2022 and 2023 to be extremely excited about that dude future oh by the way he just happens to be maybe the best defensive center fielder in baseball I have a call I have to take this love phone calls love them anyway Julio had a great day at the plate a good day at the plate Randy with the two-run Homer i' had to feel good against his former team Luke Ry man since August Luke rley has just been a really good offensive player when he's back is bad but the goods have been really good he needs to hit in the middle of the order every day heck I'm even hitting him in the middle of order against lefties right now I don't expect much but he might be able to run into one and the rest of your lineup isn't good enough so Justin Turner with a three reach day Jorge Palanka with the two-run Homer JP Crawford with a three reach day that's awesome to see they need him to get going not only for the rest of this year but to feel good about him for next year because he's going to be in your lineup next year so it'd be really nice to see that flash of what he was last year if you can get that that'd be really nice to see and good every Mitch harvor compliment is going to feel P patronizing or patronizing however you're supposed to say it it's patronizing I know maybe it's patronizing I'm so tired uh it's going to feel like you're talking to your little five-year-old about what a great picture she Drew I would never do that to my nieces by the way every picture they've drawn is perfect um you're just hoping for a couple of games like these as your backup catcher because you can't expect much more only guy who struggled today offensively in whole was Josh roas now big dumper after the RBI single didn't get any hits and he struck out three times but he does get the RBI single he's by the way up to 90 RBI and say what you will about RBI and you should be really cool to see him get to 100 be really cool to see him get to 100 for sure you get the win okay Google what's to score the Astros game looks like the Diamondbacks are going to beat the Astros so that's going to be four and a half and if you take a look at the Wild Card Standings I believe it's three and a half but I'm going to confirm that right now it is three and a half because Kansas City beat Minnesota they we needed a sweep in that series Seattle Mariner fans needed one of those teams to sweep the other one so now sorry Minnesota we got to rot against you hard we also have to root hard against Detroit and Boston because Detroit gets two out of three and they have the same record and unfortunately Seattle has the dis Fortune of being losing that tiebreaker because of how unbelievably poor they played against Detroit they shouldn't have won a game against Detroit took a terrible play by Ryan valade in order for them to win one game against Detroit o but it's three and a half and it's three wins it's three wins that you're behind the Minnesota Twins now and it's tied with Minnesota or Detroit excuse me BR and slip which will thinking one of the two and I just want to go over the twin schedule because we've gone over a bunch of the Astro stuff they get the Angels this week favorable they get the Cincinnati Reds then they get Cleveland on the road they get Boston on the road get the Marlins and then they get Baltimore a chance a chance and I guess we got to talk about Detroit schedule now too right we kind of have to now Detroit schedule's really interesting because they've got the highs and the lows they've get the Rockies this week the Orioles the Royals the Orioles the Rays and then they end with the white socks a white socks team that could be extremely motivated to not break the all-time losing record but a lot of good in there that they play a lot of crap let's go over the Red Sox too because they're only a half game back of SE tough Baltimore New York Tampa Bay Minnesota Toronto Tampa Bay and they have just looked bad heck outside of when they played the white socks and they lost to the White Socks today the Red Sox look out of it anyway I bring these up because you can't give up on the wild card now you're closer in the Wild Card than you are in the division the tough part is the teams but it's just the Tigers and hopefully the Detroit Tigers can just calm down a little bit and I hate to say it now you're rooting for two teams to collapse you're rooting for the Astros to collapse and you're rooting for the twins to collapse there's your shot I didn't talk about it much but it's so nice to see if you could just erase Saturday and I've tried you can't this offense has looked really good lately the last five or so games have been very solid offensive efforts will it matter I kind of doubt it but it's nice to see some life and I'm you're G on to it please hit like please hit subscribe appreciate the support so much would love you to check out that Seahawks video totally understand if you don't but you know it's another fun thing I'm doing love you guys talk to you soon
