The Mariners (50-58) are 4-2 on this road trip and they’ve won three games in a row for the first time since May 25-27 – a three-game series at Tampa. They will go for a fourth straight win tomorrow, which would tie their season long streak of four games. They are now 28-27 on the road this season and 22-31 at Safeco Field.
Rob Rasmussen picked up his first big league win, pitching 1 1/3 inning and not allowing a hit and striking out two batters.
