I went to two games this weekend. On Friday night, my uncle and I sat and watched as the Mariners apparently lost to the Yankees 4-0. I say “apparently” because it was unclear the M’s ever actually showed up to that game; the offense was more lifeless than I can remember seeing in the last few years. It was disheartening.
Yesterday, however, I also attended the Mariners game, and that game was the exact opposite thanks to an electric final two innings. It was all due to Mitchell Evan Haniger.
First came the steal.
