Despite the chaos of last night and the hails of the return of chaos ball, the ball tonight has looked a lot more like Félix ball. By that, I mean a pitching duel where the Mariners’ offense has had moments but looked tepid at best. Unfortunately, several players continue to slump badly, including Cal Raleigh and Mitch Garver - the latter of which remains hitless in his last 12 at-bats. Despite that, the Mariners still chaos’d their way to the W.
