The Mariners are riding a serious high back home this week, and a high water mark for the season as well. Off a four-game sweep of the Angels and 5 consecutive series wins, Seattle hosts the second half of the 2023 Vedder Cup tonight and tomorrow night. The Padres and Mariners split the two games they played in San Diego in June, so the season series goes to whichever team sweeps these two games… or to no one.
