After a brutal homestand, few wins have been needed more so far this season than yesterday’s complete team effort of a 5-1 victory. A trio of homers and six scoreless from your ostensible #7 starter? We take that any day of the week. Last night was just the first bout between the Mariners and Padres, though, and the vaunted Vedder Cup surely won’t be decided in such a small sample.

The Mariners’ lineup is fairly similar to last night’s tilt, but tonight, Dylan Moore gets the start at second base while Miles Mastrobuoni fills in for Leody Taveras in right field.
