We're giving this game thread an early start. Just like we hope the Mariners get off to an early start! Scoring runs, I mean, not making outs. The timing of one's start isn't all that's important; what's also important is the direction. Score runs, Mariners, and defeat your pathetic opponent! Angels are the lowest of the nine celestial orders, and they should be treated as such.
