MORE STATS
The Mariners are 6th in the Majors in ERA this season at 3.58. After the All-Star break, the Mariners are 9th in ERA at 4.08. Oakland is 4th after the break at 3.40. Now this isn't a good stat for me because I wanted to defend the pitching down the stretch. I think this ERA number is probably attributed to that damn losing streak.
The Mariners this season are 20th in team batting average at .261. Oakland for the season is 24th (this will soon be debunked) at .255.
But...
We know what kind of team the Mariners are, and that they're apparently supposd to play small ball instead of sit back for the big home run. But the big home run is still occasionally supposed to happen, right? May you just get a bit lucky and have a ball fly out every now and then?
The Mariners this season are 24th in slugging percentage at .393 (YEESH!). Oakland is 18th at .419. The Mariners after the break are 26th (it can get WORSE?) in slug pct after the break at .381. Oakland is TENTH in slug pct after the break at .427.
Once again, kids, OAKLAND STEPS UP and THE MARINERS BURY THEIR HEADS IN THE SAND AGAIN.
GO SEAHAWKS!!
