Over the Hump!
Given Batista's start, I would not have thought we were gonna win this one...
Happily, Adrian Beltre arrived to save the day with two bombs, and we opened up a can of Whoop Ass on the Fat Man, Bartolo Colon.
The M's have officially arrived, back into relevance for the first time since 2003.
ESPN won't notice for several weeks, but your Seattle Mariners are a playoff contender.
Now that this monkey is off our back, it is time to get back to the business of chasing down the Angels, pummelling them mercilessly, then laughing while they choke on our dust.
The M's are in the hunt, the Yankees are in the cellar with the Devil Rays, and Scott Spiezio, Jeff Cirillo and Rich Aurilia are all safely tucked away in the National League where they can't hurt us.
Enjoy it! If you're reading this, you're a diehard like me, and you deserve any pleasure you get from the M's after the last three years of abject misery and unappreciated optimism.
Ryan Feierabend looks to take the hill tomorrow with a well-rested bullpen behind him and Felix waiting in the wings for Wednesday. M's need to take it one game at a time as they sweep the Angels...
