The Mariners will be in Oakland to take on the Athletics for game 1 tonight.Marco Gonzales is going for the Mariners and Paul Blackburn gets the start for the Athletics. When these teams met last, the Mariners swept a 3 game series.
Right-handed Pitcher Paul Blackburn will be climbing up the hill to start for Oakland in the first round of a two-game battle against the Mariners tonight. In his MLB tour this year, the twenty-seven-year-old righty starter is 0-1 with a 5.06 ERA and 1.50 WHIP while striking out three batters while pitching for 5.1 innings.
The Athletics secured Game 1 after a 4-1 triumph on Friday but Oakland failed to maintain their winning form in losing the remaining outings at 5-6 on Saturday and 1-2 on Sunday. Pitcher Frankie Montas made a good start with 7.0 scoreless innings on two hits while granting two walks but struck out nine San Francisco hitters in the losing effort. Second Baseman Tony Kemp acquired a one-run score on one hit in leading the Athletics. Center Fielder Starling Marte drove a triple while LF Mark Canha acquired one RBI on one hit in defeat.
The Mariners have had a decent season so far. They have played better than what a lot of people thought.They are in 3rd place of the American League West with a record of 66-58. They trail the Astros by 7.5 games.Seattle has lost the first 2 games of the series against the Astros. Houston beat them 15-1 on Saturday.Logan Gilbert got hit very hard on Saturday. The right hander went 4.2 innings and allowed 9 earned runs.
This is a matchup between 2 good teams in the American League West. I look for the Athletics to start off this series well.Oakland is a better team and they have played well at their home ballpark this year but Mariners will dominate this game tonight.
