St Louis has more than held its own and now as you look at michelas and Seattle you win this game the Cardinals would win their 73rd and only one winning team left on the schedule over the final three weeks they've got themselves an opportunity it is going to be a tough Hall but miles Michael is the first to start Julio trying to extend what is a 10 game hitting streak batting leadoff once again for the Mariners 72° at first pitch here in St Louis in the left field make it an 11 game hitting streak for Julio as he is hustling to second base a headlong slide he's got himself a hustle double to set the tone for the Mariners today yeah solid line drive base hit pitch out over the plate there is Cal righ this is on the ground and works its way into center field Julio's being waved in two batters into the ball game and the Mariners are in front one to nothing very good start for the fellas here don't stop and now Randy Ros arena is up Ros Arena on the ground and it clanks off Fair mean's glove this sends cow making a turn to Third and the Mariners have three straight hits to open the game and they've got two Runners aboard well rayley the big key with him is stay out of middle in especially with that fast ball very susceptible to Breaking pitches this is smok out to the Gap in right center field Cal trots home meanwhile a Ros Arena races to third he's making the turn and headed home Luke rley drives in two more runs for the Mariners it's a two run standup double and the Mariners in business right away it's three nothing in the first inning still nobody out an avalanche it's a tsunami I mean hits hits hits you got to love it there a starting pitcher you've got to say okay I got to start over now you don't get the start over there's no doovers except in the backyard when you're 10 but you've got to mentally do a doover like it got in on the hands a little bit for Turner and the hits just keep on falling rayley gets held at third and it's five consecutive base hits to open the game today for the Mariners the Mariners have two outs now here in the top of the first inning and that'll bring up catcher Mitch gar into left field for a base hit reallyy is in Turner he's on his way home to score from second base Mitch Garver has added once again to this Mariners lead five to nothing with two outs in the first inning holy smokes what a frame for the Mariners powerful statement needed it big time I mean don't stop now 5 nothing Luis Castillo who pitched here a lot back in his Cincinnati Reds days is up with the mound with an early lead yeah 29 starts on the year 11 and 12 36 ER tro is back way off of first G turn a pretty nice play Caso covering wind grounds out now it's Alec burles the Cardinals designated hitter today Sho left field somewhere near the line Ros Arena able to get there easily two up and two down for Paul Goldman Fly ball out to right field it's got some carry to it reallyy continues to back up out of the warning track it's a one two three scoreless first so Julio going the other way Loops one into right field now starts off the second with a base hit he's two for two here's Randy one for one singled he scored a run as well in that first inning out to left field sailing back and gone into the seats Randy arose rea the former Cardinal for a heartbeat sends this into the crowd and the Mariners continue to pour it on two more runs in on a home run from a r Ro Arena it's seven to nothing Randy Aros arena with a two-run shot with Julio aboard a screaming line drive into the lower deck in left field so Randy with a couple of runs batted in with one swing in the bat arado nbar and Herrera to bat the Cardinals trailing by seven and and that one in the gaping left Center there's the first Cardinals hit so 10 for 28 is ronado head-to-head against Castillo there goes the no hit bid and a good start for the Cardinals here in inning number two as that one on the ground and pass Roa set to base hit ronado got a good read he's on his way to third Herrera stands at second with a double in the Cardinals trying to come back that's all you can do at this point is you continue to chip away and this is a good piece of hitting right here by Ivon Herrera this is 96 in on his hands pulls him in sneaks it right past Roos over at third base he was thinking to and rightfully so right out of the box Jordan Walker is the key man of the inning two on one out a wave and a miss as Castillo gets Walker to whiff on a breaking ball for round number two that good breaking pish at slider right at the knees and right off the barrel of the bat let's see if fine can provide a two out hit he can right back where it came from from and that's going to score two runs 72 for me with a Ambush job good work for the Cardinals eighth place hitter the Cardinals are hanging on to some hope because of the uh playoff situation and they're kind of hanging on to some hope for this game today fine day for baseball this Sunday afternoon the 8th of September Mariners 72 lead there's a line drive up the middle for a base hit for Paul goid he's going here's a pitch it's high for a ball ball four so the Cardinals now with a two out something here Runners at first and second Newar can make it interesting this is a fair ball and it's tackled behind the bag from Turner who dives and he slaps the bag with his glove for out number three great play by Turner yeah he Turner looked up and said hey man he's not here I got to do this what are we doing Ivon Herrera leads off the fourth inning there's a base hit for Herrera he's having a good day today herrera's got a double and a single good start for the Cardinals are getting good swings against Castillo so who knows what'll happen today pitched him in again that fast ball running in at 96 pretty good two seamer Carver's walking out there and the umpire's right there with them what's this about something going on with Castile he's calling the trainer out that's yeah that's the reason why he's out there he's going to make sure that they take a look at him Dan Wilson on his way out to the mound is an arm thing or did he come off the mound might have been an ankle oh twisted his ankle right there at the back end of it yeah that's going to be it for him that it was his ankle a very sudden exit for Castillo walking a little gingerly call to the pin Trent Thorton is on to pitch and will take a little time to warm up here so's next he struck out his first time who knew coming to Bush Stadium would be such a wouldbe Island Connection little flip to first base number three and that inherited Runner is stranded it's the Mariners seven and the Cardinals two as we go to the top of the fifth inning Forge palanos batting right-handed today struck out twice left-handed against the starter miles michelas this is out towards center field can is turning watching and this is gone orge Palo rides a two-run homer out of here the Mariners continue to add on it's now the Mariners nine and the Cardinals two here in the fifth inning exit below of 109 on that 419 ft all Mariners today in this series finale a 92 lead by himself seven as Michael seani looking for his first hit of the day sees a first pitch called strike Ros Arena drifting towards foul ground see if he's got some space over there he does not by Mariner fan and that breaks the spell for Mason wind look at him raises his arms to the heavens as if to say there's a base hit that snapped an 0 for 19 as Alec burles who's one for three on the afternoon stands in first pitch Swang on slow roller to palano Flips to JP for one over to First and he got him got him by about a half a step an ining ending double play we go to the eighth inning Mariners lead the Cardinals by a score of

First the ball wasn't hit that hard to try to turn the double play they get Nar at second over the third goes Carpenter and another Jordan Walker Walker opportunity to drive in a run he's kind of been
