The Seattle Mariners closed out their season-opening series against the Oakland Athletics on a sour note, losing their third straight game on Sunday. The Mariners were unable to capitalize on a strong start to the series, as they lost the final three games to drop the series 3-1.
The Mariners opened the series with a bang, as they scored seven runs in the first inning of the first game. They were able to hold off the Athletics for the remainder of the game and won 7-4. Unfortunately, they were unable to keep up the momentum in the following games.
In the second game, the Mariners were unable to score a single run and lost 4-0. They were able to muster up some offense in the third game, but it wasn’t enough as they fell 6-3. In the final game of the series, the Mariners were unable to score a single run and lost 3-0.
The Mariners had high hopes for this season-opening series, but were unable to capitalize on their strong start. The team will now look to regroup and get back on track as they prepare for their next series against the Los Angeles Angels.
The Mariners will need to make some adjustments if they want to have success in the upcoming series. They will need to find a way to generate more offense, as they have been unable to score more than three runs in any of their four games so far this season. Additionally, they will need to improve their pitching, as they have allowed 20 runs in their four games.
The Mariners will look to turn things around quickly as they face the Angels in their next series. If they can make some adjustments and find a way to generate more offense and improve their pitching, they should be able to have success in the upcoming series. However, if they are unable to make these adjustments, it could be a long season for the Mariners.
