What in the F is the Seattle manager doing?  Raleigh was safe at home.

The Mariners are doing all the little things.  It's not often you see guys steal 3rd these days.

Impressive win for Seattle after playing a 15 inning game.

I sure wasn't counting on winning that one. Incredible performance by the M's pitching staff. Great clutch hitting by Polanco. Dumper being Dumper. Awesome!

The. M's staring pitcher was tremendous.  On the flpside I think Toronto made a mistake taking their starter out in the 5th.  He gave up a homer to a guy who rakes.  That happens.  But his stuff was great and his pitch count was low. It didn't make a lot of sense to me.

Again, I assume his manager knows more about him than you or I do. Maybe, statistically, he gets roughed up the third time through the order. Maybe he tends to tire quickly and leaves pitches hanging after throwing X number of pitches in a game. Or any number of other factors. Also, Toronto's starter was taken out in the 6th, not the 5th.

I thought the same about Raleigh maybe being safe, but you do know that each team has a video coordinator who advises the manager on these things, right?

The current in vogue phraseology of 'Seattle STOLE game 1' puzzles me.  3-1 win.  Isn't it more accurate to say 'Seattle EARNED the victory in game 1'?  'Seattle played better than Toronto'?

I know you know this, but "stole" is sportswriter shorthand for "won a playoff game on the road"

My 6-year-old grandson, who lives in Chicago, has adopted the Mariners as his team. I asked him who his favorite player is.

"Big Dumpster!"

This is touching but why have one dumpster when there's a whole team of them on the south side

And an entire ballpark like smells like one on the north side.

Like the idea but would rather have Koenig in that spot given performances. And that terrifies me as someone that doesn't trust Koenig

This concerns me as well.  I hope we're wrong.  Is Hall still off the roster?

Yes, Hall is not on the roster.  Meyers for Mears was the only roster change for the Brewers.
