Mariners Moose Tracks, 8/19/18: Balk Off, Trevor Bauer, and Mariners Starting Pitching Updates
In case you missed it, the Mariners won last night in extras on a walk off balk.
For only the 22nd time in MLB history, a game has ended with a walk-off balk. @Dodgers pitcher Dylan Floro committed the balk with the bases loaded in the bottom of the 10th tonight, handing the @Mariners the win. Rarity! pic.twitter.com/G2EgvKoWDt
— Alex Harris (@alexstuharris) August 19, 2018 I’m surprised that it had happened 21 times before this in the history of MLB. Regardless, what a weird way to win a baseball game. I’ll take it any day though. Go M’s.
