Mariners vs. A's Game Highlights (6/6/24) | MLB Highlights

JP Sears on the mound this fine afternoon for the athletics making his 13th start. And Jp Sears again that lone man the rotation who started things off in this Oakland rotation, but now just continuing to try to set the tone facing a tough Mariners lineup here. What a glorious Thursday afternoon here in the Bay area Mariners against the athletics. This series all tied at one with a piece Oakland winning last night, 2 to 1 get this one in the air to right brown calling off and he will camp underneath one down and that will bring up Dylan Moore who is playing third base today getting a 2, 19 6 homers and 20 runs batted in and Sears will get his first strikeout good pitch there and two are down, julio Rodriguez with a home run in the ninth inning off Mason Miller last night and his 22 pitch and that swung on him down. He goes back to back changeups to julio and for se it's a 123 top of the first and you know who it's Brian woo, that's right East Bay native on the bump sixth start of the season. Things have gone very well for Brian Wu so far, Abraham to, leads it off for the A for Mariner to lines it down the right field line. It drops fair and gets to the corner. Abraham chugging for second. He will stop there and a leadoff two bagger for Toro starts off the A's offense in the first. Not a bad way to get the afternoon started continuing the tear. He's been on out in front of a changeup, caught it off the cup but still able to tuck it in. It is down and he is off to the races 3 41 2 homers and 12 RBIs making his 11th start for the ball club after coming off the A 21 that's grounded the other way , it'll do a job. France takes it himself advancing to, to third one down. That was off the end of a Dohar bat. That's two, you know, maybe unconventional but productive nonetheless, but you're right. Couple of balls that have not been off the barrel but very productive to now over at third base JJ, a runner in scoring position, less than two outs. Scott Service will bring the infield in swing and a fly ball into shallow right center field. Julio racing in he's there and he makes the catch tagging at third. Now, stopping as Toro puts on the brakes, goes back to the bag. Julio with a strong throw in. Raley will keep Toro at third. We have a spattering of Mariner fans here at the ballpark this afternoon. You can hear him clapping. So fly ball to shallow center field by bled can score Toro runner at third with two outs. And that will bring up designated hitter today, Brent Rooker, the set by Wu and the 22 pitch swing and a miss and he got him strike three first strikeout of the ball game for Brian Woo. And that's it for Rooker. And the A's in the bottom of the first inning. They leave stranded at third with a four pitch walk and he's on at first base with one down. It's a ground ball to third might be here to going to second goes to first around the horn and Taylor made a 543 double play set leads off for the athletics. The second no score in our ball game. 32 inside out swing to left that's going to track Robles back, but now breaking to his right, it's dropped out of his glove. What happened there? Brown slides into second base. He looked like he had it measured up. His sunglasses were odd and just a complete dud in left field by Robles. That's it. This is nothing more than a clang certainly should have been caught. It was off the, the heel of the mid 31 to put out and on the play. Brown will get to third. So one on two outs, the a again with a run around at third base with two outs to get out of that jam of the first. Looking to do so here in the second, no score, the ball game and that will bring up second baseman Zack Goff, fastball strike three called, got him looking Goff strikes out third strikeout for Brian W zips by a fastball right by him and that's going to retire the side. It clanks a routine fly ball and he gets hit. That's a damn baseball and it likely a sacrifice situation. I think so. They're up at the corners. The bunt got it down. It's a beauty and safe at first. The bases are loaded. What a great bunt got it down on the first attempt too. Ryan bliss with a base hit the bottom third of the order productive here in the third inning. Not sure what Soderstrom the first baseman was doing. He wasn't even on the base. Yeah, that is a, what the hell with that? Please tell me that's the first time you've ever seen that. That is the first time. So I don't feel so alone because I'm, I'm looking at the brief like, what are you doing when you're a first baseman? That's your job right last that look, but a break got cash it in now. Couldn't ask for much more bottom third of the order walk, hit batter in the, but he's beaten there. Sears responds with a strikeout against JP Crawford. That's JP sears' third strike out of the game well done. Take advantage of the situation. You get a walk and a hit batter and Then a bunt base hit to load the bases up with nobody out swinging a high fly ball out to left field. It sends and duar back pal in front of the warning track. The ballpark holds it. He makes the catch Garver tags and is on his way home. He scores standing now that Lamore gets the job done. A sack fly into left. The Mariners jump on the board early today. It's one to nothing in the top of the third. Well, looks like Cal Raley is going to be issued first base. That's another hit by pitch for JP Sears his second in as many innings. And I think, I think that's a good call. Cal runs pitch up and in throw way off line. Cal Raley, everybody with his first stolen base of the season , the big dumper using some momentum to second and he swipes the bag here in Oakland and it's all the way to Hanne. He swings and misses got up upstairs five strikeouts for JP two outs now of the inning trying to keep it a 10 deficit. And here comes Garver who walked and scored last inning base hit , man. He's going to wave him going to challenge that arm out there. Van Duha. It is not in time and off line. A two out RB I Mis Garver and a big dump scores from second after setting it up with a stolen base. You got to love it. It's two nothing Mariners and that will bring up Dylan Moore struck out and had a sack fly two nothing Seattle one out one on top of the fifth. Strikes him out for a second time. Six K's for Sears. So Julio zero for two last 11 games though. He's hitting 357 with three home runs and 10 RBIs tries to time a breaking ball and swings and misses on a pitch that was outside solid single by Soderstrom that breaks an zero for 20 for him and that will bring up a swing and a miss by goff strike three. And that is strikeout number five for Brian Wu one on and two away that will bring up shortstop Max scan swinging a fly ball straight away. Center field, Julio who is right , he's there and makes the catch and that's going to end the inning. No runs, one hit and a man left on. And what an afternoon for Brian w well, the A have their bullpen warming up right away 92 pitches for JP Sears as we open up the top of the sixth, the Mariners have the lead two to nothing time at the plate and Sears doesn't miss that time. Eight strikeouts for JP Ty France falling victim to that fastball at the top of the strike zone. JP Sears living right up there now, the lowest, er, a in franchise history through the first six starts of a season was set in 1995 by Randy Johnson. It was a 1 to 1 up to date right now. Wu a 1.08 going back, Dylan Moore coming in robes. Dylan stays with it makes the catch and the kid from Alameda High School comes back to Oakland and dominates once again , it has been truly a historic start to the season for Brian Woo who goes six scoreless today inside the Coliseum, his boyhood ballpark and retires batters faced Garve today, walked and scored RB I single in the fourth and walked again in the seventh swinging a fly ball deep into the gap in left center field, going back to the one track to the wall looking up and goodbye. Baseball, Mitch Garver with his sixth home run of the season over the tall wall in left center field. The Mariners pick up the insurance run they're looking for for Mitch Garver his second RB I of the afternoon and it's now the Mariners three and the A's nothing. What a day for Mitch Garver Mariners one out away from their sixth shutout win of the year and here is J JB zero for three on the day. The A's with only two hits swing and a pop up shallow right field going out to the line is second baseman Dylan Moore back pedaling. He's there and he makes the catch and the ball game is over. The Mariners shut out the Oakland A's three to nothing here at the Coliseum. The Mariners win the series two games to one.
