g111 | one run woes...

Mariners 1 | Royals 2

Heard on the post game on my way out of Safeco after the game ...
Mariners have scored 2 runs or less in 30 of their games.

As much as I love pitching and defense, it has become apparent that offense is just a WEE bit important as well.

Hits and runs were too hard to come by ...
Save for Russell's homer ~ that broke an 0-fer twenty-somethin' slump ~
 't was the usual anemic O

Walks were a little too easy for the Royals ...
But, none of them scored and other than throwing too many pitches, Pauley did quite well.  And, it was good to see Sean have a nice outing as well and David get some work in, even though it wasn't a save situation.

Despite a few nice plays were made in the field ...
the defense wasn't as sharp overall as last night.
