After a sleepy loss to the Orioles yesterday, in which Baltimore played arguably the best game they’ve played all season defensively, the Mariners reasserted themselves against the cellar-dwelling O’s with a dominant 13-3 win. In the game thread, Zach noted that J.P. Crawford and Mallex Smith had a rough go of it in yesterday’s loss, with just one hit between the two of them. Today the pair bounced back to combine for six hits, one walk and no strikeouts, with five RBI. The heavy lifting was done by Crawford, who had his best game as a Mariner thus far: four hits, including a home run, four RBI, and some sparkling defensive plays.
Mariners remember they are the Mariners, not the Orioles, win
