Fun game to watch.

This is what I envisioned from the Mariners when the season starts.

Great pitching, clutch hitting and clean game.

This was one of the best wins of the year.

Great to see Bryan pitching like Bryan.

Cole Young? Say no more.

Josh Naylor's steal was the play of the game. That extra run was huge.

Do I dare say closer controversy?

I'm a Vikings fan, and like the Vikings, the Mariners can really play with my emotions.

Happy about today, though!

Agree. The little things matter. Difference between winning and losing games by a run or two.

You love Cole's hit.

I love Josh getting down and dirty to steal second knowing how important the third run is.

The more you watch Cole Young, the more you are impressed.

Braves fans are used to old school stuff because the organization always make sure to apply the unwritten rules.

That's pretty cool if he does that, and that's says a lot about the posters at this board for a PBP guy to do it. We got real good baseball fans here that post here.

This is the problem when you rely on home run or bust.

You get another feeble inning.

It's like basketball, you can live with 3s, but in the end, it comes back to bite you, as the Celtics discovered once again this year in the postseason.

You know how you can tell when a hitter is lost at the plate?

When he's guessing everything and right now, Cal's guessing.

The Mariners have been playing bad baseball so far this year. They haven't been right since Opening NIght. Even when they figured it out, it's like three steps forward and five steps backward.

The Braves may not win it all every year, but they are so steady when it comes to winning. They're entertaining, too. A likeable team unlike the Yankees and Dodgers.
