Seattle entered the game still tentatively in the hunt for a playoff berth. The Diamondbacks entered still jockeying for position with the Baltimore Orioles for the worst record in all of baseball. The Mariners sent the recovering Yusei Kikuchi to the mound. The Diamondbacks turned to the unlikely Tyler Gilbert.
First Inning:
If it took you a few extra minutes to grab your beer, finish fixing your sandwich, and finding the remote, you might have missed this inning. Nothing doing for either side.
Second Inning:
The Diamondbacks go quietly again.
Kyle Seager leads off the bottom half of the inning with a walk.
