HIDE’s COMMENTS 🎙
 Colorado fans are fascinated by Jon Gray.
The Rockies had four consecutive wins to take the second match over Mariners, 4-1. Today’s starter, Jon Gray, pitched very well, throwing hit 5, ER 1 and strikeouts 13 in 7 1/3 frames. Carlos Gonzalez helped Gray, J with a two-run home run in the 2nd. 
 On the other hand, the Mariners was silenced with just 5 hits  and 1 run as Jon Gray dominated the game. By the loss, M’s had a three-game losing streak. They also lost to the Rockies for the forth time in five games. The next game is the last match before the All-Star Game break. Seattle needs to stop the losing streak since the #Astros, 1st place in the AL West, are five games ahead of the Mariners at the end of the game.

Mariners have been going through a tough time with a three-game losing streak, & losing 7 games in the last 10 matches. There are ups & downs in the long season. It seems the strain of the players has begun. I respect players, including Ichiro Suzuki, who cheerfully inspires his teammates before each game. Today will be fine for the M’s. Go to play off!! We like this team. Good Luck ‼️😉

Today’s Heroes!!
Deffense; 
 Matt Festa made his Major League debut.  Festa relieved a starter, Wade LeBlanc on third with one out. He gave up  two RBI singles to Nolan Arenado and Trevor Story and threw a wild pitch with Carlos Gonzales batting.
 The 25-year-old pitcher from AA Arkansas, but, retired next Carlos Gonzalez and Tom Murphy on ground balls. He totally had 2 hits with 0 ER over 2/3 Innings.
 Manager Scott Servais appreciated his pitching as follow, “I thought Matt handled it well. He wasn’t fazed by the moment at all. He’ll get some more chances here down the road.”
Offense;
Inning 8 ;

• Chris Herrmann singled on a sharp line drive to right field by which Ben Gamel scoured. 1-4.
