Good job by Fuji. Mullins is the man.

I need to rest up after watching that game. Lol

It's not though. He doesn't use it with man on 1st and 2nd. I guess if he stopped his delivery it would be a balk?

Yeah, you can pause as long as you're in your motion to the plate.

Somehow someway we did it! Mullins should be an easy call for the Player of the Game.

And I hope that last play means Mateo is over his 9th-inning fielding yips.

Yeah, I just looked it up.   Clase has 3 more games pitched than Felix... but he actually has fewer innings.

I have it at 4 more.  55-51.

Couple guys at 53.

Fuji did it! Great job, the team Wa is working! Yay!!

Fujinami needs to get tested again in a high leverage situation. I want to know if today was for real.

Fuji is Japanese. 

McCann is fluent in Japanese.

Or more likely, Fuji knows some English.  Perhaps not enough to be comfortable doing an interview in English with a camera shoved in his face, but knows enough to be about to communicate with his catcher.  Same applies to many of the Hispanic members of our team.

This could very well be true. There is a humongous sized gap between him and all of our other relievers. None of them are really any good (mediocre at best).

Not sure if you intentionally omitted him or not, but I think Yennier is good. He has a 1.78 ERA in as many innings as Felix has pitched. Obviously he started the year off really hot, but he's a rookie and hitting a wall should be expected. The graphic they showed on the broadcast today showing how much he has switched up his pitches recently tells me he's adjusting back.

Game should have ended at the next hitter, but it's okay. His afternoon got even more memorable.

Yes, even better than yesterday--love to see that it's some players who are either just back from the IL or Norfolk or in the doghouse (Mateo, Mullins, Fujinami, Vespi) and Hyde's questionable but successful moves that won the game, rather than the typical Mountain shut-down.

Exactly. KB wd have been on s**t list long-term if we had lost it.

All the goodwill KB built up the past week would have went up in flames.

That hippy with the Ripken jersey is going to get a beat down in the parking lot. Run for it!

It’s Seattle, some dude will probably invite him into his Vanagan to mellow out.

Yea I notice on a lot of post game interviews the Spanish speaking fellas only need the translator for the responses.

I dunno man, the PNW is pretty scary now.
