The Mariners kick off a road trip in Pittsburgh, returning them to the sweaty mid-Atlantic region they’d just escaped a week ago. George Kirby will take the mound against the famously right-handed Mitch Keller, and all the lefty bats in Seattle rejoiced. Get up to speed on the Pirates in the series preview here.
Lineups:
Roster moves and injury updates:
If you missed it in the lineup graphic, Randyland is back in the board game cabinet. Connor Joe has been returned to Tacoma, as the team continues to put
off a decision about what to do with the struggling Rob Refsnyder. More on the impact of having Randy back from John here, and more on Refsnyder from Nick here.
Other injury updates: Dominic Canzone tested out that balky hamstring with some running today and reportedly felt good; he was planning to hit in the cages pregame and will be evaluated again postgame, but remains out of the lineup today.
