ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Nelson Cruz has enjoyed plenty of success over the years against the Los Angeles Angels.
This season has been the best yet.
The veteran slugger hit a three-run homer, Mike Leake pitched seven strong innings and the Seattle Mariners started a 10-game road trip with an 8-2 victory over the Angels on Thursday night...
A couple of miscues got the Mariner fans thinking "Not Again!". Then Nelson Cruz and Denard Span hit back-to-back home runs. Edwin Diaz shut down the O's 5-3.
Padres' Jason Nix was two outs from a complete game, before getting pulled. But, outlasted Felix Hernandez to snap a five game losing streak with a 2-1.
Once again, a late inning rally for the Mariners had the DBacks biting their nails. But Arizona avoided a three-game sweep by beating the Mariners 5-2.
The Mariners put a late inning scare into the Astros. But, the rally fell short in the Houston 10-7 win. This win gives the Astros sole ownership of the AL West.
Some costly errors by the Mariners defense and Felix loss of command of his pitches open up the flood gates for Texas. The Ranger hammered Seattle 11- 4.
The most surprising team, thus far, as it relates to the 2018 MLB season, is clearly the Seattle Mariners. Today they were rewarded with that by getting three of their players tabbed to the AL All-Star team.
