Game Thread #150: A’s vs. Mariners

The Oakland A’s are clinging to 2021 postseason hopes, and they’ve won five games in a row. But now they’ll face a tough test in the Seattle Mariners, a fellow Wild Card contender who has beaten the A’s in 8-of-12 meetings this year.

For what it’s worth, that record might be closer than it appears. Three of the losses were charged to Lou Trivino, twice when he blew a save and again when he blew a tie in the 9th. Trivino looked sharp in his last outing on Sunday, retiring all five Angels batters he faced.
