The Seattle Mariners lost to the Tampa Bay Rays 3-2 on Tuesday despite 10-strikeout performance from Logan Gilbert; The Mariners will play their second rubber match in as many series on Wednesday.
SEATTLE — Close games are apparently a staple of the Seattle Mariners in the early stages of Dan Wilson's managerial tenure. Unfortunately for the Mariners — the latest one didn't go in their favor.
"I feel like my stuff's been good. It's just good games or bad games are kind of depending on my mentality and recommitting to my plan every batter," Gilbert said in a postgame interview Tuesday. "I was pretty good at first-pitch strikes tonight and just trying to race to two strikes as quick as possible and expand from there. When I do that, I'm usually in better situations. So it's really about just that simple mentality that helps me.
Cal Raleigh brought the Mariners back within one in the bottom of the eighth with a two-out RBI single that scored Leo Rivas and cut Tampa Bay's lead down to the eventual final of 3-2.Seattle had the game-tying and go-ahead runs on base after Raleigh's single. Randy Arozarena, who hit a three-run homer on Monday against his former squad, struck out looking in three pitches and left the two runners stranded.
