The Mariners managed to beat their division leader Houston (7-4, 1-4, 6-3) in the last series, but are still out of the playoff zone. With a 26-32 balance, Scott Servais' team ranks fourth in the American League West Division, behind both Texas and the Los Angeles Angels, who have recently lost 14 straight games.
The first game against Boston was a tight one, but it did not yield a result for Seattle. It was a 3-4 pitching loss for reliever Andres Munoz, who missed a crucial 2-run shot in the 7th inning.
Seattle's starting pitcher for game two against the Red Sox is George Kirby, 1-1 and with a 3.38 ERA in 6 starts this season.
Boston's Moving Closer to Division rivals
While Seattle has not found any stability, Boston has been playing great lately. The team is getting closer and closer to the leaders of their division, the American League East. Winning eight of their previous nine games, Alex Cora's team has reached 31-28 and moved into sixth place in the American League's standings.
Reliever Jake Diekman, who already has ten holds on the season, pitched the first game in Seattle. The save, only second of the season, came from Tyler Hook. Xander Bogaerts, J.D. Martinez and Bobby Dalbec all had RBI at-bats.
Starting on the pitching hill in the second game for Boston will be experienced reliever Michael Wacha. The former St. Louis Cardinals pitcher is 4-1 and has a 1.99 ERA in nine starts this season.
