Watch closely
You're seeing the death throws of Aaron Sele's career...
UPDATE: Scot Shields and Bengie Molina have cleaned up Sele's mess, and it's all knotted at five heading into extras. We can't lose this one...
UPDATE: To the bottom of the 12th we go... Due up: GA (0-4), Vlad (1-5), Guillen (0-5). I'm thinking due, due, and due. Let's make it happen!
UPDATE: Well, I was sorta right. GA leads off with a single, followed by another single by Vlad (who was quickly erased on the worst baserunning mistake I've seen at the professional level). Guillen was then intentionally walked. So all three got on base, thus fulfilling my prophesy that they were "due".
Erstad then proceeded to make the second out on a pop-up to second, and pinch-hitter Josh Paul struckout, ending the rally and reaffirming the theory that one should "never trust a man with two first names."
UPDATE: Kevin Gregg's struggles continue, as he allows Suzuki to score on a Boone single. 6-5 Mariners heading to the bottom of the 13th.
UPDATE: The Angels go down with out much of a fight in the 13th, thus ending the game, 6-5 to the Mariners.
We can't afford to lose any games, much less games we were just one flyball away from winning. And to get shutdown by Madritsch for four innings? Unacceptable.
