Today the Mariners played a Very Spring Training Game and lost to the Rockies, 5-0. This game was sloppily played by the Mariners and also not a ton of fun to watch, so here’s what happened in easy-to-digest bullet points style:
- George Kirby made his first spring start and, well, looked like he was making his first spring start. He had a strong first inning, sitting 95 and carving through the top of the Rockies’ lineup 1-2-3, but in the second, left some pitches in the fat part of the plate first to Michael Toglia, who doubled, and then to Cesar Trejo, who hit a two-run homer.
