The Mariners head on down to Houston for a four-game set against an Astros team that has recovered from its COVID protocols-induced tailspin and is fresh off beating up the Angels over a four-game series. The Astros outscored the Angels 31-12 over their series win, with the big blow coming in a 16-2 victory on Saturday where the Astros refused to remove their cowboy boots from the necks of the floundering (yet Trout-less) Angels, tacking on three additional runs against position-player-pitching Anthony Bemboom. The Mariners are riding their own hot streak, however, taking a series split against the AL-East leading Red Sox to follow their series split against the world-leading LA Dodgers.
Series Preview: Mariners (13-9) at Astros (10-11)
