U have gotta be kidding me. Every ab Grichuck has come off the bench against us has been a homer.

Isn't there a rule in MLB that a team cannot have 3 batters in a row with unpronounceable names? :P

Not sure how this team can manage to keep snatching defeats from the jaws of victory. Another bad feeling about this. Just one run to cling onto now.

Shit. GrinchChumbawamba is also unpronounceable, too.
Protest this game!

That was a bullshit homer by Grichuck.

Basically closed his eyes.

Ferrer is gross.

Ferrer is so so good. Solid pickup thankfully we had more then just a run in the 9th.

This game wasn't quite Stevie Wonder as the Mariners fell short of 10 #1 hits.

But.... The Mariners offense did reach parallel success as one of the greatest "No talent ass-clowns" in history: MICHAEL BOLTON!

Bolton, like the Mariners today, had a total of 7 hits (top ten on the Billboard hot 100) including two #1 hits (homeruns).

Could a winning streak be on the horizon?
One thing that should help the Mariners is the schedule. Between now and the All-Star break (using opponents' 2026 winning percentages), they have the fourth-easiest schedule in the majors. They won't face a single team currently better than .500 until June 23 and they'll play 16 of their next 23 games in road ballparks that lean noticeably more hitter-friendly than their own pitchers' heaven, T-Mobile Park.

Twelve of the Mariners' next 29 games will be played against teams that have averaged even fewer runs per game on offense than they have -- that's more benefit for the pitchers -- but 14 of their next 26 will be against one of the six teams that has a 4.50 team ERA or worse.
