After a thrilling, come-from-behind walkoff win yesterday, the Mariners face a tougher test today in Blake Snell, who’s been excellent lately, seemingly having regained his Cy Young form after failing to secure a long-term deal this off-season. The Shoreline-born Snell will also be pitching in front of a large crew of friends and family against his hometown team—a team he was notably distraught didn’t seem to have any interest in bringing him on this off-season. You see why Snell is a popular target for the sp*rts b*tt*ng crowd today.
Lineups:
The Mariners roll out their righty-heavy lineup to face Snell, which unfortunately means Luke Raley, one of the squad’s hottest hitters, takes a seat to start in favor of Justin Turner.
