Producer, Wyman and Bob: 2-7 p.m. on Seattle Sports
Clichés ring out with regularity across baseball, but if there is one to hold onto today it is that “momentum is the next game’s starting pitcher.” We saw that a few days ago after a clinical, dominant 4-0 win over the Blue Jays in the AL Wild Card opener led to precisely no carryover the next day, as the Mariners proceeded to quickly fall behind 4-0.
With the best pitcher the M’s could possibly ask for to take the ball for Game 2 (Luis Castillo), it gives the Mariners the same opportunity they had on Tuesday: the chance to steal a win on the road before sending it back to Seattle, where two straight wins would then give them the series. How they get there will be more complicated.
