Mariners vs. Angels: Julio’s hot, Logan locks in, and Seattle puts up 11
Despite an 11-0 blowout victory to start things off, Seattle dropped three of four to their division rivals as the Mariners lost to the Angels
It was a dismal ending to the road trip but things weren’t as bad as the 1-3 series record sound. The Mariners actually outscored the Angels 19-11 and the final three games were all one-run games. While the team lacked timely hitting, Seattle’s superstars had great performances at the plate overall. Unfortunately, without the added padding of a few more wins, the next home series against Houston Astros could decide the divisional momentum for the rest of the season.
Julio’s slash line for this series was absolutely ridiculous. Getting on base a whopping 12 times, he seems to be settling into a groove. In fact, his performance in these four games pushed his OPS+ above 100 for the first time this season. He’s still struggling to rediscover the power he had in the past two years but getting his bat-to-ball skills back seems like a huge step on the road to recovery
Julio has been on fire in the month of July, posting a 1.263 OPS over 42 plate appearances. Here’s hoping he can keep things up and knock in a few more homers to lift his numbers.
