The Seattle Mariners go for the series sweep against the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday.
The Seattle Mariners have the chance to sweep one of the best teams in baseball in the series finale on Wednesday. The Atlanta Braves are the last team in the league with only single digit losses. But after two losses in a row, they are only up 0.5 games on the Philadelphia Phillies in the National League East. Seattle catapulted its way to the top of the American League West, winning four of their last five games. Both of the games to start the series have been decided by one run.
The Mariners won the series on Tuesday with a 3-2 final. Luis Castillo pitched a great game, earning the win after going seven shutout innings and only giving up three hits. Jorge Polanco got the Mariners on the board first with a two-run shot in the third. Seattle didn’t score after the fourth and for awhile it looked like they didn’t have to. But the Mariners’ bullpen made Seattle fans sweat, giving up two runs in the eighth inning. Andres Munoz came in to pitch almost two innings and only gave up one hit and no runs to close the door.
