Seattle Mariners Bats Stay Cold in 2-1 Loss to Texas Rangers
The Mariners dropped their third-straight game against an American League West foe in the first of a three-game set against the Rangers
The first quality start of the season for Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Logan Gilbert and first home run of the year for catcher Cal Raleigh weren't enough to lead the M's to victory in a 2-1 loss to the Texas Rangers on Monday at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. The loss was the third-straight for the Mariners , who fell to 4-7 on the season. Raleigh's home run was a 418-foot, 107.
8-mph solo shot to right field that gave Seattle a 1-0 lead in the top of the first inning. "Just trying to put bat-on-ball there," Raleigh said after the game. "Trying to fight, not punch-out.
... Put a good swing on that last one. " Absolutely dumped.
