On the backs of the losing end of a sweep against the Angels, the Mariners hope to bounce back and win a sweep of their own in game three against the White Sox.
Today marks the first morning in a few days that Mariners fans haven’t woken up with news of a new acquisition, but this afternoon and tomorrow morning remains in play. Yandy? India? Yandia? Speculation set aside, the two new names to the big league squad in Randy Arozarena and Yimi García made their team debuts in last nights game, a very Randy 6-3 win that already won them the series.
The last two games not only won them the series, in both games they had back-to-back home runs (with it being back-to-back-to-back in Friday’s affair). Maybe they can make it back-to-back-to-back back-to-back jacks in back-to-back-to-back wins?
Lineups
@Mariners
I can’t say I will never get tired of seeing Robles and Arozarena at the top of the lineup, but it sure isn’t happening anytime soon. And what is that mine eyes do see? Leo Rivas, getting the start at shortstop. Best of luck to him in making the most of this rare opportunity, as thus far the Mariners have been content to have him just warm the bench.
@WhiteSox

Today in Mariner’s history
1977 - The Mariners’ John Montague has his consecutive batters retired string stopped at 33, tying the American League record. Montague came on in relief against Minnesota and walked the first batter he faced, the Twins’ Craig Kusick, to end his streak. The Mariners went on to win 5-2.
1985 - Jim Presley collected the first 4-hit game of his career, leading the Mariners to a 7-2 win over the Boston Red Sox. Gorman Thomas hit his 20th homer of the year in the Mariners win.
1993 - Ken Griffey Jr. homers off the right-field, third deck facade off Minnesota’s Willie Banks to tie the Major League record for home runs in consecutive games. It is his eighth straight game with a HR. Also, in this game, Randy Johnson records career strikeout #1000 when he gets Chuck Knoblauch.
2000 - Kazuhiro Sasaki logs single-season record 15th consecutive save, topping Mike Timlin’s 14.
2010 - Chone Figgins hits his first home run as a Mariner in the 2nd inning against the White Sox’ Mark Buehrle.
2015 - Mike Zunino and Nelson Cruz hit home runs to nearly the identical spot over 450 feet away from home plate in a Mariners 8-4 loss to the Diamondbacks…Cruz’ home run gave him 7 in July as he and Robinson Canó became the first pair of Mariners to each hit at least 7 home runs in one month since September 2006.
2021 – Abraham Toro homers for the fourth consecutive game, and second with the Mariners…becomes the first player to homer in his last 2 games with a franchise (Houston) and the first 2 games with a franchise consecutively…the Mariners acquire LHP Tyler Anderson from the Pittsburgh Pirates in exchange for minor leaguers Carter Bins and Joaquin Tejada.
