needed the runs but, oh that pitching and defense!

Mariners 6 | ‘stros 3

boxscore

ON the MOUND

  • near-QS for Anderson: 5.1IP-8H-2R-2ER-1BB-4SO
  • Smith+Misiewicz+Steckenrider+Sewald combined for 4.2 scoreless
  • Sewald’s inning was not for the faint of heart – bases loaded and nobody out and he’s able to keep ’em on the pond and ultimately, earn the W
  • Middleton gave up a run in the 11th (luckily, Kyle made it insufficient)
  • Ramirez with a 2-out SAVE

AT the PLATE

the ‘stros outhit the M’s TWELVE to NINE

and the M’s took their sweet time getting their SIX runs – they didn’t score at all till the 8th . . .

  • JP got them on the board with an RBI double in the 8th
  • Ty tied it in the 9th with a solo shot
  • Ty untied it in the 11th with an RBI single
  • Kyle provided the much-needed insurance with a THREE-run shot in the 11th

IN the FIELD

  • DP (Crawford-Toro-France)
  • Error for Kelenic
  • one super-duper play by France (he’s doing it ALL!)
