The middle game of the current three game series against the Mariners lasted long into the night. After 13 innings and a little under five hours we finally had a verdict, although it didn’t favor the Birds. But let’s start at the beginning.
Asher Wojciechowski walked a tight rope in the first inning, loading the bases on a hit by pitch, a single and a walk. He managed to get out of the jam by striking out the Daniel Vogelbach — who is a burly, powerful hitter — on a check swing.
