why the hell do we keep pitching to Stringer? How many rbi doubles will he hit before Wilson figures that out?

 

[Hawk-Lock]

In my opinion, yes, but I'm not freaking out about it or anything.

I just think they really needed to get as much out of Miller as possible, and now they're almost certainly going to have to use one of our not very good relievers at some point.

And at the end of the day, the offense has to score more than one run. Offense has been absolutely awful for every home playoff game in the Dipoto era.

Yep, absolutely.

I wish the Mariners didnt suck at home post season... jfc. SO agonizing.

 

[Ruminator]

One thing's for sure: tons of Jays left on base tonight. As long as none cross home plate, I guess that's fine by me.

Can't pitch around both Springer and Vladdy, and Vladdy is the more dangerous hitter right now.

 

[NoGain]

I almost can't watch us bat anymore. It's just a formula for frustration. Why can't we go single-single-double....

I think if you took every post season game from this year and the one game against Houston, we are probably averaging around 2 runs per 9 innings.

Yeah, but we were two miracle double plays from being down 4 or 5 runs to 1. Miller was OK, but too many runners on base.

Vladdy wasn't on deck after springer?

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Dan Wilson is single handedly ruining the Mariners chances to make the World Series. Why in the world would you pull Miller????

3...2....1......

It's frustrating AF watching them struggle to scratch out a couple runs every postseason home game. Feels like our only chance is to hold the other team to 2 or less runs, and that's quite a tall task against the Blue Jays.

 

[Chapow]

Springer is 1st, Vladdy is 3rd. I don't think pitching around both the 1 and 3 hole hitters is a viable option.

 

[Hawk-Lock]

I just did the math, the Mariners are averaging 1.7 runs per 9 innings at home in the Dipoto era.

Brutal

Definitely not trying to start an argument here, but I think the bigger problem is the lack of hitting and lack of scoring. And I think it's a much bigger problem.

 

[Hawk-Lock]

Toronto is just a much more complete hitting team than us.

 

[NoGain]

I have zero faith now that we get a baserunner in. I feel no hope in me whatsoever when we get a man or two on. It's a terrible feeling in the playoffs.

 

[Ruminator]

We sure offer a well-oiled turnstile for Jays' batters to stampede through.

 

[Chapow]

A better throw from right field would've gotten Kirk out at home. That sucks.
