Angels, Mariners look for length from starters

SEATTLE -- With significant injuries to their rotations -- and bullpens taxed by an 11-inning contest Tuesday -- the Los Angeles Angels and Seattle Mariners both hope a veteran starter can go deep into the middle game of the three-game series on Wednesday night at Safeco Field.

Right-hander Ricky Nolasco (2-2, 4.13 ERA) starts for the Angels, while the Mariners counter with right-hander Hisashi Iwakuma (0-2, 4.15).

The Angels, who already had right-hander Garrett Richards on the 60-day disabled list, lost starter Tyler Skaggs for an expected 10 to 12 weeks with a right oblique strain.
