st 2 | Eleven good, Eleven bad

Mariners 2 | Athletics 9

one thing that jumps out from the box score besides the lack of hitting for the M's and the proliferation of hitting for the A's ... each team recorded ELEVEN strikeouts

Spring flings...

  • Noesi's two inning outing, despite two walks, included no-hits and no earned runs and two strikeouts
  • Peguero's solo shot (his second in as many games) accounted for one of the two runs
  • Ackley's run was the other that came after a walk and a steal
  • 2 double-plays, both recorded as: Catracala to Franklin to Jaso

Spring opportunities...

  • Figgy, Ackley and Ichiro (the new 1-2-3) were hitless in their combined 7 AB's
  • Lack of hits, in general
  • Lack of strikes thrown, in general, despite only 4 combined walks (but then, who knows what each pitcher was working on - such is spring)
Spring remembrances...
