Seattle Mariners Blog:
Boy oh boy, did we get our asses handed to us by the much better team this weekend. Seattle was exploited where it hurts most and what separates good teams from moderate teams: starting pitching. The Washburn's and Batisa's of the pitching world CANNOT compete with the Beckett's and Dice K's of the world, bottom line. If our offense is not able to get to these types of pitchers, consider the M's a one and done canidate in the playoffs (even if they can get there).
On the flip side (no pun intended), congrads to the Miss Oh Boy OBerto hydroplane this weekend. Even without the dramatic final heat minus the Miss Beacon Plumbing and with The Elam being washed out, Steven David deserves this win. Moreover, for Art OBerto to finally get a win in his home town on his 80th birthday, the stage was set for a perfect day for the beef jerkey boat. We are also very interested to see how the new Red Dot boat competes in San Diego with a new driver. Cool looking boat and it obviously showed that his has the boat speed to compete.
