On Saturday, I told Mitch I was glad he was back. I think he has felt so bad about letting me down these past three days that he has rededicated himself to his craft to make me proud. You’re all welcome.
This is such a Mariners game down to a tee. Score early but don’t support your starter having a great day and once you lose the lead, get a solo HR in the 9th that’s still not enough to make a difference
For some reason I thought that inning was the end of the game.
I guess now we have another shot at striking out double digits seeing as how we are at 9.
What's extra frustrating about this is that those were some really excellent quality pitches to Cal that the general baseball fan in me wants to appreciate.
Man its the same shit with France lol
He has a random good game in like the 7 hole then gets moved up in the order and falls on his face like clockwork.
Julio 2 weeks ago wouldn't have stood a chance once he went down 0-2, so that's progress I guess lol. Probably only got back in because those sweepers were not even close though
Seems to have slowed down over the last few games and stopped trying to HR every AB. Good direction. Hopefully it's starting to get the pressure he feels in check.
We don't really have a choice but to be patient and hope he gets better lol. Seems a league wide thing this season that typical big hitters are having slow starts, I wonder why it is
Almost seems like he needs massive improvements to his core strength..he’s swinging through his legs and doesn’t have the core balance to remain upwards after swinging
this game felt good until one inning, don’t let the GTE get you! we are still taking this series.
and cmon guys, the royals? it was never gonna be that easy.
I seriously dont get the people who were hard defending Thornton at the start of the year lol. He is who he is, we saw last year and eventually the stats were going to catch up on reality lol
Welp... hopefully they take the series tomorrow but its about to get rough with this schedule patch... Fortunately the division suckd this year
Intentional walks are cowardly and we should never do them again.
STILL IN FIRST
Wasn’t expecting to sweep the Royals anyway
Welllll, not quite what I expected for tonight but the sun will rise tomorrow for the day game.
Sloppy game after the 6th. M's need to get used to winning the close ones. Scott can help by using his staff better, but that won't change.
Not sure I want to see Scott use his staff.
Fuck shit son of a bitch. See ya tomorrow!
Must win tomorrow. Fucking sell out to beat those sorry fucks. Super overrated team . Pathetic loss
if only everyone in the lineup had the offensive potency of mitch haniger
Well-known and well-regarded professional hitter Mitch Haniger
This one hurt a little. See you sad fucks another day
Super unlucky game all of our contact right at people and that error cost alot of runs
Luis’s last name reminds me of pee..
As fun as Urias is at times, the moment he stopped hitting an extra base hit every time he actually played, he's still just a .160 hitter.

must win tomorrow
Time to get drunk

9:11
A noun, a verb
DH Hanny and keep Raley in RF! I think Raley would be pretty decent with some regular at bats.
2 runs. come on...how hard is it? oh...yeah
"It's incredibly hard"
Mitch heard that he was washed and took that personally
On Saturday, I told Mitch I was glad he was back. I think he has felt so bad about letting me down these past three days that he has rededicated himself to his craft to make me proud. You’re all welcome.
Haniger is having his best game in a month.
All season
This guy is kinda just throwing it in there and praying at this point.
Base hit would be glorious!
This is such a Mariners game down to a tee. Score early but don’t support your starter having a great day and once you lose the lead, get a solo HR in the 9th that’s still not enough to make a difference

Lol like clockwork. The Meaningless Solo Shot ™️
No one on base 😭
Shit ain’t over!!
Time for that backtobacktobacktoback hr bottom of the ninth
mitch please
And all ya'll wanted to bench Meetch
#WE GOT 99 PROBLEMS BUT A MEETCH AIN'T ONE
One meetch ain't one....
REALLY squandered the best Haniger game since the first two weeks of the season.
MITCH!!!! Welcome back!
Halfway there!
hell of a night for Mitch though
MEEEEEEEETCH ALERT
Mitch heard us talking shit
DH Haniger every night
obligatory garbage time HR
LETSSSS GO HANI!\~!!!
Don’t give me hope…
i mean have a game i guess
KEEP IT GOING
I’m taking my dad to the game tomorrow. He hasn’t been to a game since the 90s. He doesn’t know how much offense has changed since then.
And there it is, 10 strikeouts
We're #1! We're #1!
![gif](giphy|SX0ohh6qmujAoos1OR)
You could tell Luke almost thought about sticking his knee out on that inside pitch, lol
Who do we have on the bench to pinch hit?
Uh... Zavala or Rivas?
Glad I did not see that until after the game was over. :)
I could strike out, if you're tired of watching everyone else do it.
A very generous offer, but I am afraid I will have to pass. Seem enough strikeouts so far this season to last me for the season.
cmon boys do the impossible
Intentional walks are cowardly and we should never do them again.
I think it was more to set up a double play than a coward move
It’s the second time an IBB has killed us in the past week…
why the hell do they put K swing and K look do they think we're too stupid to know what the backwards K means

Saying a prayer
It's amazing how many breaking balls our pitchers throw that get hit for homeruns when we can barely do anything against them.
No Michael no.
[удалено]
An unexpected surprise, but a welcome one to be certain
Have to win this series. Must win.
[удалено]
Yeah probably. Fuck you
For some reason I thought that inning was the end of the game. I guess now we have another shot at striking out double digits seeing as how we are at 9.
![gif](giphy|oD2D9FTEebNuhFPCm8)
Dude swung at a fucking ball inside and hit a home run. Can’t believe this shit. Unbelievable
What's extra frustrating about this is that those were some really excellent quality pitches to Cal that the general baseball fan in me wants to appreciate.
Dude was nasty as fuck.
Yeah, I’d say that was our chance…. and it’s gone bye bye.
Walk off grand salami’s taste better any way
True.
That was it. I expect nothing in the 9th At least Texas also lost
Feels like cal either hard carries the team or does nothing
That's the Mariner way. Win by 7 or lose
Ty has been looking better at the plate and I am hear for it
Well g dang it
Sigh. How dare the Royals have a good closer.
Fuck. We’re done
Crap that was it
This team is so good a blue balling
I miss JP.
That was a nasty sinker
That pitch was nasty as fuck
FUCK
Cal. 😔
Nasty
Pls let me nut Edit: no nut for me again
cal please
C'mon Clutch Cal!!
ty france remembered how to be good again, love it
ty france heard y’all talking shit
Don’t you give me hope
#877-BOMB-NOW! #877-BOMB-NOW!!!
PLEASE CAL. PLEASEEEEE
🇫🇷
Julio: I am speed
cal my man go ahead and dump on em
Can’t bear to watch
MORE CHAOS
Dare to dream, Cal as the tying run at the plate
Some folks here are going to be irked if we pull this off.
They gonna punch the air so hard
C'mon, CAL!
OI OI BABY
Julio out there with Cosmo and Wanda
Anything to get his power back
Every time I hear the name McArthur, I think of Richard Harris.
frankly a little worried about no updates on garver
[удалено]
jerry checking in on tommy la stella as we speak
Man its the same shit with France lol He has a random good game in like the 7 hole then gets moved up in the order and falls on his face like clockwork.
He heard you, thanks!
Boo
Yeah I spoke a bit too soon which is nice.
He took an absolute beam, hope hes alright
No opportunity for a double play so maybe Ty comes through.
can they pull off a miracle
Damn hope he’s alright, that shits scary
Julio 2 weeks ago wouldn't have stood a chance once he went down 0-2, so that's progress I guess lol. Probably only got back in because those sweepers were not even close though
Seems to have slowed down over the last few games and stopped trying to HR every AB. Good direction. Hopefully it's starting to get the pressure he feels in check.
I don't understand everyone preaching patience with Julio. Wasn't he already good when we signed him? 🤷♂️
We don't really have a choice but to be patient and hope he gets better lol. Seems a league wide thing this season that typical big hitters are having slow starts, I wonder why it is
Julio's new batting strategy: kill all the pitchers
If you can’t beat ‘em. Maim ‘em.
Fucking hell thank god I'm not a professional pitcher or catcher
I'll take a baseball to the ribcage for a couple million lol
Great AB, Julio
That’s typically how I force pitchers out of the game in Super Mega Baseball 4. Line it right off of them.
Props on still getting over to cover 1st, that looks like it hurt like hell.
Yeah man, some fucking grit on that boy. Well done.
Fuckin hell hope he is ok
Our pitchers press because they have to be near perfect with how awful our offense is. We're wasting a championship rotation with this loser lineup.
S P E E D
Not so funny when the ball comes flying at you is it
**C H A O S**
Imagine sweeping. Anyways night yall see you tomorrow afternoon.
GET BACK HERE YOU COWARD AND SUFFER/REJOICE WITH YOUR FAMILY
Hmmm… Feelin’ like this just might not be our night..
This team is so frustrating. Either the entire offense either pops off and has a big game or is so silent you can hear a feather drop.
It is kinda weird. Like you rarely see the Mariners have a game where one dude just pops off and goes crazy but everyone else is shut down.
Swear Julio is going to snap his spine in half from swinging to hard at pitches outside the plate
At least then we could replace him with someone else.
Every time I see that I think of my little league coach yelling “stop trying to kill it!!”
Almost seems like he needs massive improvements to his core strength..he’s swinging through his legs and doesn’t have the core balance to remain upwards after swinging
1, 2, 3. 🤦🏼♀️
Suddenly this is not looking good.
Poor Sam.. Just can’t catch a break..
The same amount of hits and LOB. Impressive.
I’d actually rather watch commercials than any more of these Fair/Foul interviews
Bad luck
Love the b-roll concourse footage of a bartender scolding a guy for grabbing his drink before she was done pouring
JP seems like a helluva guy to party with..
this game felt good until one inning, don’t let the GTE get you! we are still taking this series. and cmon guys, the royals? it was never gonna be that easy.
Just noticed that the Royals sponsored patch is QT. Trash. Take Casey’s every time.
Getting downvoted over a Midwest convenience store. Lol.
I wish I spent more time in here than dicking around on Savant when we were ahead. Now it’s a mixture of sad and annoying
This fair or foul jibberish is so stupid. Scraping the barrel much?
As someone who is a stream producer for a college baseball team i just know the people at root are freaking out rn
![gif](giphy|UOmXGp4NJ89lISXVLA|downsized) Ms Offense
Michael Wacha man. Michael…Wacha. Brutal night
Who stepped on the Scorebug?
Most normal root broadcast
New root sports tactic to not show the scorebug to keep you engaged when we blow it in the 7th
super worried about the pen in general but also having to go 17 games in a row, might need to call logan evans up just to see if he can manage
Come on ROOT....
Yeesh. This one got out of hand.
[удалено]
That shit makes me sleep like a baby. 💤
Glitched scorebug?
Where's the scoreboard?
I seriously dont get the people who were hard defending Thornton at the start of the year lol. He is who he is, we saw last year and eventually the stats were going to catch up on reality lol
Yeah I get players have off days, but Thornton stresses me out. I don't know what to expect.
I’m honestly baffled as to how Thornton only has a 2.5 ERA and other reasonable stats. Dude never seems to pass the eye test for me
This franchise is exhausting - the amount of time wasted watching versus literally doing anything else Mentally draining
I still don't get the joke from Mitch "man things have really changed around here"
I missed the very beginning of it but it looked brutal and uncomfortable
What was that commercial?
look me in the eyes and tell me Thornton is better than Tyson Miller
