Seattle Mariners vs Chicago White Sox Sep 5-7

Pretty sure he is referencing the fact the M’s were stuck in that rain delay for hours, then had to play extra innings, then had to travel back home and play a day game the next day.

Think about it from a players perspective. Play an 8 hour game. Fly back to Seattle, probably don’t get in until after 2 AM. By the time players get home and to bed it’s close to 3 or 4 AM. Then back to the ball park the next day. I think that’s gassed.

We lost, just win the next game.

Ah Gotcha. My bad

I feel that from my and I's weekend for business. While I expect them to be highly trained people... sleep is golden!

I can feel the magic

A sure sign that the Ms have arrived:

Guy rarely shows much emotion. He earned the right to celebrate. Heluva performance.

When they were sitting at 0 for 8 with RISP, I was about to throw my remote thru the tv. Then, Mr. Clutch Cal took care of it.
This team clearly does their best work from the 8th inning on. Amazing pitching on both sided yesterday. That being said, they HAVE TO get better at hitting with guys on base. The Pitching can't be perfect every game.
Also, it's time to give Haggerty WAY more playing time than Winker. I like Winker, but he is struggling big time. Sevais is WAY too loyal imo.

Loved the emotion from Gilbert!

 

[Ruminator]

No-hitter in the first inning accomplished! Eight more innings to go.

7

and we can't lose to a guy sporting a bun, can we?

Luis dealing so far. Offense has scored 4. 4 to 0 Ms T4

 

[TIMD]

M's finally score more than 3 runs at home for once & as totally predictable..... The M's best pitcher gives up more. "That's baseball"...... 45 years & counting of Seattle Mariners baseball

 

[TIMD]

6 damn runs to a garbage ass .500 team

 

[Ruminator]

Though the Sox are currently 68-68, they are still in playoff contention. It's like Castillo forgot the Sox are hungry to make something happen.

 

[TIMD]

68-68 is garbage. .500 is mediocre.
Take out separate 14 & 7 game win streaks & the M's are mediocre

 

[TIMD]

Winker is a terrible outfielder by the way.... Almost as bad as his atrocious hitting this year. Jesse Beltre/Adrian Winker

 

[Chapow]

Take out separate 14 & 7 game win streaks & the M's are mediocre

Yeah, just take out 21 of their wins and they're mediocre. Super great point.



I guess the flip side of that would be, just take out 21 loses and they're amazing.... but that would be idiotic because you can't take away 21 loses. Kind of like how you can't take away 21 wins.

No...... It's saying had they played to their real number over those 21 games, perhaps 12-9 or 13-8, they would be about a .500 team. Which is what this 2 run per game at home team is. They actually score 4 home games worth of runs today & the pitching unravels. Seattle Mariners Baseball at its finest.

 

[TIMD]

Some of my venom towards this game today is from the fact that I have been watching off & on while at work. I have seen 6 White Sox runs score & Zero from Seattle.

 

[Threedee]

103 years later, and the Black Sox are still a nuisance.

Ah, gotcha. So if 13-8 over 21 games played is their "real number", then if they had played to their "real number" back in April and May, they would have a much better record now? Or does it not work both ways?

Well that sucked. Good! Bad... Good! Really bad.... Good! Well schit...
