The Texas Rangers scored nine runs but the Seattle Mariners scored ten runs in 11 innings.
Throughout the history of T-Mobile Park (nee Safeco Field), hitting home runs has often been quite a chore. That’s especially true in night games and even more so when the evenings are beginning to get a little crisper as autumn approaches.
Therefore, it’s mildly baffling to note that the Rangers and Mariners combined to score 19 runs tonight and the first 13 of those runs came via the nine home runs that the two teams combined to wallop.
