morning! A frustrating, extra-innings loss yesterday to the Los Angeles Angels capped off a tough away series for the Mariners. While a three-run home run by Cole Young was a highlight of the 7-8 defeat, the Mariners will look to put this series behind them and prepare to face the Texas Rangers. A three-game set in Arlington begins tonight at 5:05 PM with an intriguing pitching matchup of Logan Gilbert versus Jacob deGrom.
