The Mariners made a miraculous comeback to defeat the Giants on Opening Day, but for most of the game, the team was behind. Marco Gonzales threw the first pitch of 2021 for Seattle and he wasn’t his normal self.

Marco walked the first batter of the game which set the tone for how the rest of the game was going to go. He walked three batters which is highly uncharacteristic of Marco.
