Posted on April 24, 2009 at 12:31 AM.
The Seattle Mariners scratched Ronny Cedeno from the lineup for Thursday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays because of a strained hamstring.
Cedeno hurt the hamstring when he was running the bases on a three-run home run by Jose Lopez in the fifth inning of Wednesday night's 9-3 loss to the Rays.
Lopez was going to start at first base in Thursday's series finale against Tampa Bay for Russell Branyan, who was available only on an emergency basis because of lower back spasms he's had ... Read More

Posted on April 23, 2009 at 10:10 PM.
Ichiro Suzuki lined James Shields' second pitch of the game into right field for a home run and ace Felix Hernandez helped his injury riddled team with a seven-inning gem in the Seattle Mariner's 1-0 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Thursday.
David Aardsma pitched a perfect eighth with two strikeouts. Brandon Morrow walked Pat Burrell with one out in the ninth and sent pinch-runner Gabe Kapler to second with a wild pitch. But Morrow got Ben Zobrist to pop out and Dioner Navarro to fly out ... Read More

Mariners - Rays preview 4-23-09
Posted on April 23, 2009 at 01:39 PM.
The Tampa Bay Rays appeared to be struggling, but perhaps they just have opponents fooled again. The unlikely defending AL champions, the Rays have started 2009 with the same record they had in 2008.
Tampa Bay seeks to win its first series since the season's opening week Thursday in the deciding contest of a three-game road set against the Seattle Mariners.The Rays are 6-9 for the second straight season. Unlike last year's 97-win club, though, nobody is taking Tampa Bay lightly in the early ... Read More
Down goes Sweeney....
Posted on April 23, 2009 at 12:28 PM.
First baseman Mike Sweeney had to leave the Mariners game against the Rays midway through his first at-bat on a chilly Wednesday night at Safeco Field because of muscle spasms in his upper back.
He will be re-evaluated on Thursday.
Sweeney, batting .313 going into the second game of the series, swung and missed a 1-2 pitch from Rays right-hander Jeff Niemann in the second inning and grimaced in pain.
He stepped away from the plate and tried to take a couple of practice swings, ... Read More
Rays hand Mariners *ss .....
Posted on April 23, 2009 at 12:22 PM.
A nine-week run of solid outing after solid outing ended on Wednesday night for Mariners right-hander Chris Jakubauskas, who returned to Earth on Earth Day.
The 30-year-old rookie surrendered three runs in the first inning, and one in the second, third and fourth frames, putting the Mariners in a bind that turned into a 9-3 loss to the Rays before 16,476 at Safeco Field.
After using excellent pitching and defense to spend most of the first two weeks of the regular season in first place ... Read More

Jose Lopez broke up J. Niemanns perfect game in the 5th with a 3 run long ball....still some time left...be a good night for Griffey to do some yardwork......exMariner Joel Piniero raised his record to 3-0 tonight, his 'pen mate Ryan Franklin, another exM, is possibly going to move into the Closer role for the Cards, nice to see them doing well. A guy could field a pretty good team comprised of exMariners, dudes are scattered all over the League(s)...more than a few of them were part(s) of some ... Read More

Rays up early...
Posted on April 22, 2009 at 11:16 PM.
Tampa Bay has jumped out to a quick 5-0 over Seattle after 3 innings....Niemann looks strong and has held the M's hitless...Jakabauskus has scattered 8 hits which has led to the Rays quick and early success.....16 years ago today Chris Bosio pitched a no hitter for Seattle, I was at that game....also was lucky enough to see the Ms vs Tigers game when Randy Johnson no hit the Detroit Tigers in the Kingdome ....the no hitter Bosio tossed was also in the 'Dome but I can't recall the opponent.....anyway, ...

Posted on April 22, 2009 at 09:06 PM.






The Tampa Bay Rays know what it's like to go from worst to first in the American League in the span of one season. A strong start by the Seattle Mariners might have them thinking the same thing.
The West-leading Mariners look to hand the struggling Rays their fourth straight loss Wednesday night when the teams continue their three-game ... Read More
More on new Yankee Stadium.....
Posted on April 22, 2009 at 06:06 PM.
The New York Yankees might have a serious problem on their hands: Beautiful new Yankee Stadium appears to be a veritable wind tunnel that is rocketing balls over the fences.This was in evidence again on Saturday, when the Indians posted six homers, including 14 runs in the second inning. Cleveland eventually won 22-4 -- and the Yankees and Indians have combined for 14 homers in the last two days.
"With the way the wind has been the last couple of days, right field is a joke," one official ... Read More
Isao Harimoto - brief biograhy....
Posted on April 22, 2009 at 05:35 PM.
A survivor of the Hiroshima bombing, Isao Harimoto is the only player in the history of NPB to reach 3,000 career hits. The greatest player in the history of the Toei Flyers, Harimoto was one of the most skilled offensive players in the history of the NPB as well, defensively he was not as good a player....but his offensive production for the most part overshadows his fielding. As a child he suffered a severe burn to his right hand which forced him to learn to hit and throw left handed, I find this ... Read More
