Maybe orange is the Mariners’ kryptonite color—it would explain their continual poor performances against the Astros, and also against the San Francisco Giants, not exactly the titans of the NL West, and yet a team the 2020 Mariners cannot seem to beat. And here I was thinking orange and blue are complementary colors. Apparently that means only one may succeed at once. Last week I suggested the Mariners imagine Mike Minor was still wearing his Texas jersey as the struggled to get anything going against Mike Minor, Oakland Athletic, so maybe a similar trick would work with the Astros.
