Game 47, Mariners at Padres – Getaway Day

Justin Dunn vs. Yu Darvish, 1:10pm

It’s getaway day in San Diego, as the M’s head to Oakland tomorrow. After 5 straight losses and a line-up that can charitably be called “sub-optimal,” the M’s just need to get out of this series and this city. As many have said, the M’s simply aren’t in the Padres class right now, and now they’ll face Yu Darvish, one of the Pads best starters. They’ve been comprehensively outclassed, and in the final game of the series, they’re 3:1 underdogs, and that seems kinder than it needs to be.

Defensive miscues, a bout of wildness, and some well-timed hits helped the Padres pull away from Seattle yesterday, so now it falls to Justin Dunn to try and be the stopper that the M’s desperately need.
