Tuesday night the Seattle Mariners rallied from three-run deficits twice to defeat Oakland Athletics 10-8 in extra frames.
Tonight Seattle will hand the ball to Felix Hernandez (8-13, 5.46 ERA) who will start for the first time since Sept. 8 after spending some time on the DL with a hamstring injury. Hernandez owns a stellar 26-13 behind a 2.78 ERA in 51 career appearances against the A's.
Oakland turns to right-hander Edwin Jackson (6-3, 3.18 ERA) who is 5-0 with a 1.30 ERA in five career starts against the Mariners, but one must wonder how motivated the A's will be for this contest. Last night's setback allowed Houston to claim the AL West, and Oakland sits 2 1/2 games behind the New York Yankees in the race for the top wild-card berth with only four games to go.
Mariners are 9-3 in the last 12 meetings at Safeco.
8* play on Seattle Mariners +1.5.
