g26 | road sweet sweep

Mariners 7 | Tigers 2


Due to the early time, I wasn't able to follow the game properly (only heard a couple innings worth - and not consecutively) and then saw some highlights later.

By all accounts (even the Tigers announcers, as what few moments I heard was the Detroit broadcast) Michael Pineda just keeps on phenom-ing on.  Another SIX innings and NINE strikeouts.  People seemed to be especially impressed by the slider he threw to Miguel Cabrera that got him swinging for striKe 3.

Oh, and just another day at the office for the offense ...
TWELVE hits and SEVEN runs including RBI doubles for Ichiro and Justin Smoak and homers by Miggy and Luis.

Kinda hard to believe, this is our M's I'm talking about...
Not only did they just sweep the Tigers, they did it on the road and by out-scoring them 24 to 6.

I shouldn't overlook the bullpen...
continued awesome work by David (1.10ERA and Jamey (.79ERA) - yowsa!!!


Next up ...
a little weekend visit to Fenway Park.
