Lefty strikes out 11 in eight scoreless innings on Canada Day
Gamel's RBI single SEATTLE -- James Paxton brought his 'A' game on his bobblehead day Sunday at Safeco Field and the Mariners brought their brooms, completing a three-game sweep of the Royals with a 1-0 victory that moved them within a half-game of first place in the American League West.
Pitching on Canada Day while the Mariners passed out replicas of the British Columbia native with an eagle sitting on his shoulder, Paxton (8-2, 3.39 ERA) allowed just two hits with two walks and 11 strikeouts over eight scoreless innings, racking up his seventh double-digit strikeout game of the season.
