Series Preview: Mariners (72-56) at Diamondbacks (71-56)

With that ugly homestand in the rear-view mirror, the Mariners turn their focus to the upcoming four-game series against the Athletics next week. Between now and then, they’ll travel to a couple of National League cities. It would be easy to overlook these five games against the Diamondbacks and the Padres, but the Mariners really need every win possible right now. I mentioned this in the last series preview but the Mariners have won just two series since the All-Star break. It should be pretty easy to get a couple in San Diego but this three-game series in Arizona could prove to be difficult.
