It is difficult to sail in a ship. Impossible for an individual and barely manageable for a formed crew. Winds and waves are too chaotic to plan, and there are not two identical situations. For the ship to reach its destination safely requires everyone to work together as a well -oiled machine. This is what the Seattle Mariners have done this evening in their obliteration 13-1 of the Texas Rangers.
With a total race like that, I have to fight my impulse to simply reproduce the box score here so that we can all look at it and say “woag”. So, instead, I will highlight a key moment of each sailor tonight when everyone made his presence feel in this one. Teamwork does the dream work after all. We will go in the opposite order of the impact to make you wait for the greatest moments.
Leo Rivas – .000 WPA
With the game mainly finished, Dan Wilson brought Leo Rivas and Samad Taylor to defensive substitutions in the 7th. Leo only obtained one in the stick and was anchored in a double game of a position player. But we are showing protruding facts today, so here is a ball on the ground to throw Jonah Heim. These are fundamental principles, but it is a fairly pleasant game so it doesn’t matter.
Samad Taylor – .000 WPA
Unlike his defensive compatriot, Samad had two in bats. But did not have any sure in time of garbage. But don’t worry, watch it catch this 107.5 MPH line by car from Joc Pederson.
TROY TAYLOR – .000 WPA
Troy came to launch the ninth round and did quite well. He authorized the only race for the rangers today on a solo shot by Josh Smith. But it may be a good thing, because a 13-point victory could be bad luck. Better to make a 12 -point victory.
Julio Rodriguez – .000 WPA
Julio went 2 for 4 today, his first blow being a beautiful line of line in the 5th which loaded the bases in front of Cal Raleigh. His second blow had the same output speed, but a better launch angle. See the result by yourself. He came after the navies were already up 8-0, so that had no impact on WPA. But it made me happy, which is good enough for me.
Trent Thornton – .001 WPA
If there is a lesson to learn in this summary, it is that WPA is a fun statistical. You can hit a baseball of 431 feet for a two -point explosion and it will literally have zero effect. But the 1,2 round of Ball’s Thorny without a safe blow contributed to this little more. He did not bring the rangers out, but consult this perfectly placed cutter.
Mitch Garver – .001 WPA
Garver entered after the starter of the Rangers Jack Leiter was replaced by a left -handed lift. They still don’t let Jorge Polanco strike against the left -handers, so Garver replaced him at the DH. He went 1-2 with a walk, although his blow was out of the position. This clip is cut too early, but you can see for a fraction of a second how Garver feels at this time.
Randy Arozarena – .003 WPA
The great success of Randy de la Nuit was the one who hunted Leiter from the game. With the M in 5-0, he struck this little blooper on the right that he turns into a double. I personally have the impression that hunting the launcher starting from the game is worth more than 0.3% of a victory, but I am not a crunch of figures.
ROWDY Tel .025 WPA
Rowdy had the most success of all the sailors this evening, collecting 3 in his 5 in bats. I chose to show this little looper which marked Randy after its double and really shows how much the M got this evening.
JP Crawford – -.036 WPA
Our first negative WPA mariner, JP is penalized for its flyout with a fifth runner. But don’t let WPA cheat by thinking that he had a bad game. In fact, he led the match with a simple on the field after falling into a 0-2 hole. He also had a double of 2 points in the 9th which scored the 12th and 13th points, but it was out of a 42 MPH curve of gravity, so rather allows you to see a real launcher.
Rhylan Thomas – .043 WPA
The 25 -year -old made his major league debut today and had a great time in the park. He picked up 2 points produced on an update pair and even collected his first career success. This blow turned out to be the spark of the Grande Channel of the Navy this evening, and it was also quite funny to watch. The navies struck in this round, so he gathered his first blow and the first point produced in the same round, but not the same appearance of a plate. Regarding Stathead Wizard Alex Mayer, this is the first time that has happened since 1969, which dates back to its data.
Ben Williamson – -047 WPA
Next time is Ben Williamson, who picked up a success pair, including a double RBI that he smoked from the right wall to the 5th. But it was not his best time in the game. No, his best time was when he took this jump to end the first round and keep the rangers without strike.
Miles Mastrobuoni – -.049 WPA
Our last negative WPA sailor, Mastrobuoni has taken up two strokes but did not hit any race. WPA does not really reward him for his single of the 5th round, and punishes him hard enough for his 2nd round alignment. But that’s how it works in a low lever effect. However, we can appreciate its blow.
Jorge Polanco- .055 WPA
Jorge had an abridged match today because he was replaced by Mitch Garver when Leiter was replaced by the Gaucher Latz. But even again, he resumed a blow and a walk in his three appearances of plates, forcing Leiter to launch 18 throws through these steps. Perhaps this exploitation of the number of steps is what led to the large round.
Bryan Woo – .226 WPA
Finally, we arrive at the two big ones. The two sailors who had the most impact on this game. Bryan Woo was excellent in his departure, making 6.1 rounds and removing 8 rangers. He only granted a lonely blow, a single of two outings at the end of the fifth. He had wore a perfect match until this moment, withdrawing the first 14 rangers who stood against him. His command was immaculate and his cursor was devastating. If it was not for a 10 stick throw in the 7 which carried his pitch account up to 87, he would probably also have finished this round. Not a bad day for parmesan.
Cal Raleigh – 278 WPA
“Jake! Jake! How did the navy obtained these 5 points that I continue to see on the score bug? You haven’t told us yet! “
I’m kidding, you knew the answer. In addition to calling bullets and strikes for Woo’s jewel with a start, Cal Raleigh hit his 11th and 12th circuits at the head of the MLB today. They would have been sufficient to win even if they were both solo shots. One of them was a solo explosion that he sent 432 far from the marble – the most distant home run in MLB today. But the second explosion was a great perfect home with a follow -up that recalls his circuit to take the playoff in 2022. I will just look at this in rehearsal for a while.
Each sailor had something to smile today. A nice game, a clean sleeve or the big blow. This is the kind of teamwork that M needs in the future when they are content with a list stretched by injuries. But if they can continue to transport together as they did this evening, we will see the right ship Marine Roll on the waves all summer.
