WEST SACRAMENTO – A season that seemed like it couldn’t get any worse for the Mariners did Friday night. A comeback that gave them the lead in the top of the 10th inning, and perhaps kept hope alive for a postseason bid, turned into a greater letdown, a 6-5 loss to the Athletics at Sutter Health Park when Donovan Walton hit a two-run home run in the bottom of the inning. George Kirby threw at least 100 pitches for the second outing in a row but found no joy in the accomplishment that surely sa...

In 1998, US Poet Laureate Billy Collins published his first paradelle in The American Scholars. The footnote to his paradelle, “A Paradelle for Susan”, reads: The paradelle is one of the more demanding French fixed forms, first appearing in the langue d’oc love poetry of the eleventh century. It is a poem of four six-line […]

A fresh start, perhaps? Lineups: Kirby takes the mound tonight, hoping to be steadier than the uneven Jeffrey Springs. JP is back to leading off, and Birthday Boy Weston Wilson hits ninth. Taylor Ward is the DH tonight against the lefty Springs, and not to complain, but Arroyo would have been more fun. News: A […]
After a day off at home in Sacramento the A’s should be rested up and ready for another series win. Spoiler hats on people. Our division rivals, the Seattle Mariners, are fighting to remain relevant in the playoff race but are seeing their hopes fade fast. They sit in third place in the AL West […]
Logan Gilbert’s incredible play at the plate in yesterday’s Mariners win wasn’t just a clutch moment in the game; it also underscored a fun little storyline this season, where Gilbert has gone from the worst Mariners pitcher at controlling the running game to the…[checks notes, checks them again]…best? That’s right, after being one of the […]

Fairchild is a glove-first outfielder. In 697 big league plate appearances across six different seasons, he has a combined line of .221/.309/.377. That tr...

After a brutal August that saw the M’s play numerous playoff contenders and spend a lot of time away from home, playing the A’s at home was supposed to be a cakewalk pie stroll. Spoiler alert, it was not! The phenomenon of cruel nature that is the 2026 Seattle Mariners once again exerted itself, and […]
Hello. The Rangers lost what had to be a top 3 worst loss of the season yesterday, falling 4-3 to the Mariners. Evan Grant says it stings that much more now that there’s hardly any time left in the season. Josh Jung will be back soon, if it isn’t too late already. Ditto Nathan Eovaldi, […]
Welcome to Thursday A’s fans! We got a brand new series on tap as the A’s welcome division rival Seattle Mariners to town for three games. Seattle is falling in the standings fast and has to be in panic and desperation mode right now. They can’t afford to drop a single game to the Athletics […]

Few teams have had as disappointing a 2026 season as the Mariners. Despite finishing one game away from their first pennant and entering the year as a popular pick to represent the American League in the World Series, the M’s are all but guaranteed to miss the playoffs. They’re highly likely to end up below […]
SEATTLE — Jacob deGrom felt his groin tighten in the fourth inning Thursday afternoon at T-Mobile Park and told the Texas Rangers he was good to keep going. He finished 6 scoreless innings against the Seattle Mariners with 12 strikeouts and left with a 3-0 lead. Seattle scored four runs off Jakob Junis in the […]
The Texas Rangers missed a golden opportunity to get closer to an American League wild-card spot on Thursday. After Rangers ace Jacob deGrom retired the first 15 Seattle batters to help stake his team to a 3-0 lead, the bullpen let Texas down in a 4-3 loss to the Mariners. With all the other top contenders for the third wild-card spot idle on Thursday, the Rangers failed to capitalize on a shot to pull within one game of the Cleveland Guardians for the final berth. Instead, the Rangers are two...
