It’s no secret that the strength of the 2023 Mariners will be their pitching staff, and today that was on full display as Mariners pitchers held the Brewers to just two runs, striking out a combined 13 batters over a 7-2 rout.
Logan Gilbert got things started and was in full Walter mode, scattering just three hits across his four innings of work with five strikeouts. Logan sat 95 on his fastball, getting Brewers hitters to strike out on the pitch both swinging and looking. He didn’t allow an extra-base hit and got four groundouts to just two flyouts, eliciting lots of weak contact off the bats of Brewers hitters.
