A couple of convincing series wins is too little, too late for the Mariners. Winning their season series against both the Angels (11-8) and the Astros (10-9) is a small consolation. With seven games against the Rangers and three against the Athletics to finish the season, the Mariners have a good chance to win their season series against each of their division rivals—a feat they haven’t accomplished since 2002. They only need to win four of seven against Texas and avoid a sweep against Oakland to secure those winning records.
