This 8-2 loss was a different kind of frustrating. Sure, the Mariners were outplayed by the Angels. Maybe even by a substantial margin. Still, this game felt - for the lack of a better word - unlucky. The Mariners had a scoring threat end in the sixth inning after Ben Gamel beat a throw from Mike Trout to third base. Gamel’s momentum pulled him off of the bag, allowing Zack Cozart to apply the tag. Furthermore, Chris Young waved at a pitch that bounced in the opposite batters box that got by Mike Zunino with two outs.
