bottom of 4th inning off lefty Dallas Keuchel...it was his 4th homer this season off a LHP (in 39 at-bats);
he didnt have a HR vs. a LHP last season in 61 at-bats (did have one post-season bomb off a lefty)
and had exactly 4 homers vs. LHP in both 2011 (133 AB) and 2010 (179 AB).
AT HOME AT SAFECO...Hisashi Iwakuma picked up the win last night with 7.0 innings of 0 earned
run work...in seven starts at home this season, Iwakuma is 3-0 with a 0.92 ERA (5 ER, 48.2 IP); thats
the lowest home ERA in Major League Baseball this seasonin his career, Kuma is now 8-2 with a
1.83 ERA (22 ER, 108.1 IP) in 17 career starts at Safeco Field...dating back to Sept. 21, 2012, Iwakuma
has notched 9 consecutive quality starts at Safeco Field; thats tied for the 4th-longest streak in Safeco
Field history, the longest since Felix Hernandez set the club mark by rolling off 12 consecutive Quality
Starts from May 23-Sept. 17, 2010.
EARN IT...Hisashi Iwakuma allowed an un-earned run in the 3rd inning last night, snapping his
scoreless innings streak at 23.2, the 8th longest shutout streak in Mariners history (5th longest by a
starter)...however, he extended his streak of not allowing an EARNED run to 28.2 IP; thats tied for the
5th longest streak in Mariners history (see sidebar at right)...Kuma has not allowed an earned run since
the 2nd inning of his start May 26 vs. Rangers.
MEANWHILE, DOWN AT AA JACKSONthe Jackson Generals swept a DH yesterday, turning a tripleplay to end GM#1, and collecting a walk-off hit to end GM#2...see all the details in the minor league report.
2ND INNING BLUESthe Mariners have been out-scored 43-12 in the second inning this season
the club is batting .166 (38x229) with only one HR in the inning, while opposing teams are batting
.288 (74x257) with 15 home runs.
HOME SWEET SAFECOthe Mariners are 17-16 at Safeco Field, including a 14-10 record over last
24 home games (since 4/18)the Mariners had only 9 home games in May, but will play 18 of 27
games in June at Safeco FieldMariners are 11-21 (.344) on the road.
HOMER BREAKDOWNSeattle has hit 72 homers this season (in 65 games) accounting for 108 of the
teams total of 232 runs this season (46.6%)homered in 42 of 65 games, but just 1 in last 5 G and only
4 HR in last 9 G overallfor the year, Seattle has hit 46 solo homers; 19 2-run homers; 4 3-run homers;
and 3 grand slam home runsthe Mariners rank 6th in AL in HR (finished 11th in AL w/149 HR in 2012).
IN SEARCH OF A 4-HIT GAMEthrough 65 games, Mariners players have combined to record 120
multi-hit games (led by 18 from Kendrys Morales), including 24 3-hit games (7 by Morales)the
Mariners have yet to have a player record a 4-hit game this season.
AS YOU (MAY) KNOWMariners pinch-hitters boast a .323 average, but DID YOU KNOW?
thats second in the American League?...Seattle (10x31/.323) trails only Cleveland (4x12/.333) in the
AL...in 2012, Seattle hit just .236 (17x72)...Seattle pinch-hitters have not hit over .250 since 2004
