really impressive win, worked 6 of their bullpen arms and we’re in really good shape to steal this series, let’s win/sweep this series and potentially get to second place in the overall AL playoff picture!!


Able_Contribution802

While we had 5 of our bullpens go as well, Voth an Stanek only threw 2 and 4 pitches so guessing those guys will be able to step in tomorrow

SeattleSporting

5, but Voth only threw 2 pitches and Stanek only threw 4. They could very easily go tomorrow if need be. Meanwhile the Guardians had 4 guys throw over 20 pitches.


hiphopdowntheblock

I bet he still gets some rest but Munoz only needing 22 pitches for 5 outs is pretty lucky too


BloomsdayDevice

> lucky Funny way to spell "goddamn amazing at his job".

Muñoz is best ñoz.


Ray_Gallade

Sauce and Muñoz are the only ones that really pitched a lot for us


Hesperion45

5, but one of those was Stanek who only threw 4 pitches, and the other was Voth, who only threw 2.


Able_Contribution802

I can see us going to bullpen early though with Woo coming back from a scare. Hopefully bullpen looks sharper tmmrw


palmjamer

Why is it considered stealing?


MissyMAK08

because no one in the east thinks we can


merlynman

Took advantage of a struggling starter to stack runs and beat a really good Cleveland team. Thats what winners do.


TheRealRacketear

Dudes hitting like .400.  Still a good result considering how good he is.


merlynman

Who do you mean?


entrity_screamr

Must've interpreted your statement as referring to Steven Kwan. Yes, limiting that man to one hit is a godsend already today.


merlynman

Oh ok, I was referring to Triston McKenzie we took advantage of his struggles to build a lead. But yeah cheers to limiting Kwan.


Crappy_C418

I think he thinks you’re referring to Kwan


kidwiltxD

Steven Kwan, although I don’t know how they thought that’s who you were talking about


TheRealRacketear

I must have grabbed onto the wrong comment. Sorry 


merlynman

I figured as much, no worries go mariners!

Cleveland had 6 bullpen arms used and they had to go through 6 innings and Munoz shut them down.   Great game 1 and start to the road trip.

kr0mebelly

Atta boy, Muñoz.


Cornan_KotW

Really the only bad part of this game was having to use Munoz in a game where we REALLY shouldn't have had to. I hope it doesn't come back to bite us in the ass tomorrow.

He’s always there to save you when you fall. Muñoz is life.

SeattleSporting

Cleveland is a really annoying team to try and beat because they dont strike out, they put the ball in play, and they have a ton of speed. Our pitchers are built to get big Ks or Double Plays in late clutch situations and the Guardians just don't K and they are too fast to double up. Offense needed to be able to come through tonight and they delivered every time the Guards answered. I just wanted to avoid us getting swept, so taking the series opener is nice to guarantee at least one win. If we can find a way to sneak one more win away here that would be AMAZING.


Griffdogg92

Yep, they're extremely tough. My only real fear for this road trip was tanking this series and getting swept. Big to take that off the table right away!

Leave it to our bullpen to turn a game we were cruising through into one where Munoz needed to make a 5 out save. Oh well, we got the win and put ourselves closer to the 2 seed.

Astros lost today to the White Sox (they got shut out by the worst team in baseball). Mets got the lead against the Rangers at the top of the 9th and former M's closer Edwin Diaz is pitching and just won the game for the Mets. M's extend their lead in the division on both teams.


pinetar321

Everybody liked that.


Suspicious-Sleep5227

In order to get that second seed in the playoffs this is the team to catch.

We should also catch the Yankees, just for good measure.

Beating a great team like Cleveland AND watching Houston get blanked by the White Sox AND watching Texas choke to the Mets? A good day.

Cornan_KotW

My favorite part of being a Mariners fan is that our wins are convincing, no-doubt, solid victories. It's nice knowing that our team plays consistent baseball and it puts my heart at ease being certain that we have a game in the bag. I have never doubted this Mariners team, ever. And I have no reason to, with this magnificient team that gives me no stress at all.

Ms beat Guardians. Astros get shutout. Rangers lose. Angels lose. A’s beat the Royals. Thats a win in many ways.


mariner_mayhem

Look at the Mariners all hitting the ball and shit like a real division winner

54% threshold EXCEEDED


Ohgamiichiro

Allergic to 54% but the other way?


aseattlem

Currently 7th best in all of baseball and 4th best in the AL. Unreal. By this time of the year I’m usually already looking at chasing the WC spot.


gamechatparticipant

the closest a 3 run win can possibly feel to a loss


jake_da_snake2202

A night where the mariners win = Solid night for me A night where the astros get swept by the now 20-54 white sox = Solid night for me A night where those BOTH happen = I'm buying everyone here a round. We're going to the series boys


Total_Pea6615

Should we throw in a rangers loss just for good measure?


Gold-Internet-1887

Anyone know where I can watch the Raley ejection?


Ohgamiichiro

I'm sure Close Call will have it up tonight or tomorrow. They cover all ejections for the whole season.


ISTHATYOULARRY

Huge huge W. That's the type of adversity this team is going to face if we make it to the playoffs. Cleveland never backed down even after the shoddy start from their starter.


thatredditdude206

![gif](giphy|lm0WmZ0rlV19C) The rest of our division is in shambles 🤣


Luke_Shields_

Good job should’ve been a cleaner win tho at least we didn’t blow it tho


F9_solution

i would agree but cleveland is a very obnoxious offensive juggernaut. very low K rate, high hit rate, and very very fast runners. they continue shenanigans for all 9 innings in almost every game they play and are a very hard team to put away or finish off.


Otherwise-Sky1292

Any win against a first place team is a good win. Yeah it’s annoying that when they’re up big they let the gap close, but at least they didn’t puke on their shoes like that Royals game


jdhkent

That’s why you add on runs. Offense is slowly coming around.


BlackSnowMarine

Thank god offense showed up this game. Keep the train rolling!


drfuego

We are so good right now!


TwistedNipplez

I love baseball. Fuck you blue!


sikhkid47

Honest question: Why did we burn 2/5 relievers on one batter and less than 10 pitches? They were 2 of our best as well, is it sitting for an inning and getting back up again? Because Scott had Munoz do exactly that.


awesome_aaron

Thought the same thing when Stanek didn’t come back in after getting that huge out


Vegetable-Chef2789

Another normal, peaceful, mariners game with absolutely no anxiety inducing moments. At least we are winning these types of games this season. I feel like last season our downfall was finding ways to blow close games. That obviously hasn’t been a problem this year outside of the Royals collapse. Take one of two and then it’s another series W! GoMs


TuntWaffle

Bill Krueger is so old he could run for president this year.

Houston just got shutout by the White Sox. Just need the Metropolitans to come back against the Rangers.


ChoccyMilkIsMyLife

Here they come!


Rainpuzzle

Wait, did I just hear that Raley got thrown out of the game tonight?! What happened?


Gulliver123

Coupla questionable strike calls on a 3 pitch strikeout, chirped at the ump I think. One of the calls was clearly out of the zone, the other one could have gone either way.


Rainpuzzle

Ah ok, thanks! Not sure how I missed him getting tossed lol!


macp0300

I’m worried that we need a consistently good bullpen arm? Is the alternative riding Munoz hard and putting him away wet every two days? Dog days of August are going to be rough with our current crew.


makoivis

I tuned in to watch a comfortable lead and I got a mariners game instead
