3 Up, 3 Down: Best and Not-as-Good Performances From Seattle Mariners’ 10-0 Shutout of Baltimore Orioles
Heading into this previous weekend, the Mariners have been 0-6 in video games leading to a shutout. Now, they’ve two shutout victories of their final three video games, routing the Orioles by a rating of 10-0 on Tuesday evening in Baltimore.
After enjoying 5 occasions in 4 days down in Boston, the Orioles recalled left-handed pitcher Zac Lowther from Triple-A Norfolk to piggyback opener Bryan Baker. It didn’t take lengthy for that plan to backfire because the Mariners jumped on Baker early, operating him out of the sport after 1.1 innings pitched with three earned runs to his credit score. Lowther suffered an analogous destiny however was pressured to endure 5.1 innings and 100 pitches of punishment from Seattle’s offense, which tallied an extra six runs off the southpaw on eight hits.
The Mariners have been tearing the duvet off the baseball all evening lengthy, registering 17 hard-hit balls with 11 of them exceeding an exit velocity of 100 miles per hour. All however one among their beginning 9 hitters recorded successful, bringing the staff’s grand whole to 13 with six of these going for further bases. Apparently, regardless of the abundance of onerous contact, none of these went over the fence.

On high of that, the pitching was pretty much as good as supervisor Scott Servais may have presumably requested for. Baltimore scraped collectively 5 hits and a stroll however struck out 12 occasions and failed to maneuver a runner previous second base.
It was a whole, utter dismantling by the Mariners, giving them their third win of 5 or extra runs in 4 video games. Let’s go over the three greatest and not-as-good performances from the blowout victory.

The Seattle Seahawks’ OTA practices last week were open to media members, which offered them the first glimpse of new offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak’s scheme.
Abe Lucas: Seahawks have brand-new offensive ‘identity’
Of course, it’s difficult to glean too much from practices at this stage of the offseason. No live contact is allowed, teams are still early in the process of installing their playbooks and new players and coaches alike are still adjusting to their surroundings.
But even with all that in mind, former NFL wide receiver Michael Bumpus liked what he saw at OTAs from Kubiak’s Shanahan-style offense, which is known for its wide-zone blocking scheme and play-action attack.
In particular, Bumpus said it was refreshing to see the connectivity of Kubiak’s system and how everything ties together.
“I saw the vision,” Bumpus said during Friday’s Four Down Territory segment on Seattle Sports’ Bump and Stacy. “I literally saw the vision of Kubiak and this offense. … I saw a wide zone. I saw a wide zone to a screen. I saw a wide zone look to a reverse boot over the top. You just see the connection from play to play to play.
“It was just refreshing to see not necessarily new concepts, but concepts that connect,” he added. “… It’s OTAs, (so) take it for what it is. But the vision was there and it was fun to see it unfold.”
The connectivity of Kubiak’s scheme is something other analysts have highlighted, too.
Back in January, when Kubiak was interviewing for the Seahawks’ offensive coordinator job, ESPN analyst and former NFL quarterback Dan Orlovsky described it as a “butterfly effect” during an appearance on Seattle Sports’ Brock and Salk. Orlovksy said the attachment from play to play is the biggest difference between Kubiak’s system and the one run by former Seahawks OC Ryan Grubb last season.
“In that (Shanahan coaching) tree that Klint comes from, that scheme, the most fundamental part of it is everything looks the same,” Orlovksy said. “There is always a butterfly effect to a play call, and things are always constantly attached. There’s a consistent sequencing of events. You’re painting a picture so often in that scheme, rather than writing a letter.
“And Ryan Grubb’s stuff (last) year, I do think that there was, we’re gonna call this play, and then we’re gonna call this play, and then two quarters later, we’re gonna call this play,” he added. “There wasn’t a lot of attachment to, all right, we called this, and we have these three things off of it that are gonna look the same or were set up because of.
“I think that’s the fundamental difference.”

One of the Seattle Mariners most elite pitching prospects will miss an originally scheduled start for the High-A Everett AquaSox against the Eugene Emeralds at 5:05 p.m. PT on Saturday.
Switch-pitcher and Seattle’s 2024 first-round draft pick Jurrangelo Cijntje was listed as the team’s starting pitcher for Saturday, according to a game recap published on the AquaSox’s site. As of 3 p.m. PT, Nico Tellache replaced Cijntje as the scheduled starting pitcher, according to the MiLB Gameday preview.
The 22-year-old Cijntje was pulled from his last start against the Spokane Indians on May 31 due to discomfort in his right arm. He exited in the top of the third without registering an out. He had three strikeouts, one walk and allowed three earned runs on as many hits in two innings before his early exit.
There’s been no news on specifics of Cijntje’s injury was or if he had a setback before he was scratched Saturday.
Cijntje (No. 88 MLB Pipeline top 100, No. 86 Baseball America top 100) has made 12 appearances this season — nine as a starter and three as a reliever. He’s posted a 4.57 ERA with 45 strikeouts in 41.1 innings pitched in his first professional season.
Cijntje’s late scratch could be good or bad. The fact he was originally scheduled to pitch could be a sign the injury isn’t serious and the organization is being cautious. It could also mean that whatever is plaguing the former Mississippi State hurler is more severe than originally expected.
If the injury is severe or lengthy, it might not mean the end of Cijntje’s season. His stuff from his right side is more advanced than his left, but if he avoids a potential season-ending surgery, his ambidextrous ability can allow him to potentially stay on the field exclusively as a southpaw.

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Kyle Hendricks earned the 100th win of his career, Ryan Zeferjahn, Reid Detmers and Kenley Jansen combined for three innings of scoreless relief, and the Los Angeles Angels held on for a 5-4 victory over the Seattle Mariners on Friday night.
Los Angeles Angels 5, Seattle Mariners 4: Box score | Standings
Hendricks (3-6) gave up four runs and eight hits in six innings, striking out two and walking two. The 35-year-old right-hander escaped a jam in the fifth inning. With runners at second and third with two outs, Hendricks got Randy Arozarena to ground out.
Zeferjahn retired the side in order in the seventh, Detmers struck out two of four batters in the eighth, and Jansen threw a 1-2-3 ninth for his 13th save.
Right-hander Bryce Miller (2-5) gave up five runs and six hits in five innings for the Mariners, who have lost four straight.
The Angels scored twice in the fifth to take a 5-4 lead. Jo Adell got hit on the helmet by a 94-mph fastball and stole second. Chris Taylor followed with an RBI double and Nolan Schanuel adding an RBI single.
Taylor, the veteran utility man who was signed after the Dodgers released him on May 18, also singled with two outs, stole second and scored on Zach Neto’s RBI single for a 1-all tie in the third. Travis d’Arnaud followed Jorge Soler’s two-out single with a two-run homer for a 3-3 tie in the fourth.
The Mariners scored once in the third on J.P. Crawford’s RBI single and twice in the fourth on Rowdy Tellez’s sacrifice fly and Leody Taveras’ RBI groundout.
Key moment
Julio Rodríguez jumped high above the wall to rob Taylor of a potential two-run homer to end the sixth. The Seattle center fielder teased Angels fans who thought the ball was gone by taking several steps on the warning track before flipping the ball from his glove to his throwing hand.
