g54 | nearly double the hits but, half the runs

Posted on by

Mariners 1 | Rays 2

Where’s runs?!? where's runs?

ELEVENTH one-run LOSS (twenty-four ONE-run games total)

ON the MOUND
Roenis faced the minimum in FIVE of his EIGHT innings and posted YET ANOTHER quality start .  . .
EIGHT innings ~ FIVE hits (all singles) ~ TWO earned runs ~ ONE walk ~ SIX strikeouts

} Mark gave up a hit in the 9th but, struck out TWO

AT the PLATE
a familiar theme of opportunities wasted . . .
~ Mark, Kyle, Seth and Zu all stranded at 3B w/less than TWO outs, AJ stranded at 3B w/less than TWO outs
~ Zu and Nellie the only starters without a hit (though they both walked – Zu’s walk led off the 9th)
~ Mark’s first hit as a Mariner came in the first pitch he saw, his second hit came in his last AB (he struck out twice)
~ Robbie had TWO hits and an RBI but was also picked off 1B 😦
~ ONE for ELEVEN w/RISP ( double 😦 )

IN the FIELD
nothing wrong with the DEE . . . 
* seth one great catch, one really good catch
* TWO double-plays
