I agree, the extra run is a big factor for pitchers in the ninth. Pitching is just a little bit easier.

The Mariners really blew this game in the sixth. And with Mr. Franklin throwing a gut ball to Johnson so he can get a grand slam was what won the game for the Yankees. He made a very bad pitch in a crucial situation.

These are just the types of mistakes a good team should not be making. Hope the Mariners shape up.

Exciting baseball- I did not like the outcome of course, but I am still proud of the Mariners and tomorrow is another day on the diamond. Go Mariners.

And then the D-backs lose at home to the Mets. Art Howe did some great chin posing in the dugout. Bad night for me as a fan.
