In the latest installment of Mariners Mondays on ROOT SPORTS — nothing like a four-game sweep to ease the sting of a losing streak.
After tallying 30 wins in April and May, the Mariners went into a bit of a June swoon dropping 10 of 12 games, including a six-game losing streak. So taking two out of three from the St. Louis Cardinals and splitting a two-game series with the Pirates was a welcome change.
Wanting to keep the momentum going, Taijuan Walker took the mound on June 30 against the Baltimore Orioles.
