Lackey (5-3, 2.70) Baek (1-0, 5.40)
Assuming a standard Mariner batting order, tonight's lineup has combined to hit .323 against Lackey over 201 at bats. Assuming a standard Angel batting order, Cha Baek isn't very good. A win puts this team at that elusive third game over .500, and also nets them a tie for first place, but they're gonna have to earn it. I wouldn't expect as much charity tonight.
LET'S GO MARINERS!!
