00:00because when it comes to the athletics playing baseball nothing uh warms the heart quite like
00:06that the problem is another terrible situation for the mariners uh craig will have to fly from
00:12hey pretty good series uh that you just had against the red sun but you got to fly
00:17across country now now you're home now you're going to take on the athletics
00:21and this kid anderson i don't know what your thoughts of what you've seen from him so far
00:26the phenom rookie he's been good but i hasn't i don't know is he any different than what we saw
00:34from miz is he unbeatable no i i don't get that at all do you no he hasn't pitched uh
00:42you know as well
00:42as you know coming up like skeins did or strasburg did or miz did it hasn't been that but uh
00:49you know
00:49he he still is he still was the top prospect in baseball when he came up at the time and
00:54i would
00:54expect him to get right tonight i mean jack perkins unfortunately for the a's is statistically
01:01one of the very worst starters going right now in major league baseball three and ten six point
01:05four two earned run average um it just feels like if seattle is gonna get back in it and stay
01:12in it
01:13they gotta win all three of these games all four of these games excuse me they play four games in
01:17a
01:17row so uh you know anderson doesn't he hasn't thrown as many strikes as they would like him to
01:22that's gonna have to start tonight but i mean joe you're going up against the worst team in baseball
01:27playing with a triple a lineup a lot of guys already out uh for the season and the mariners
01:32play 19 games against the al west down the stretch they play seven times against the a's
01:38three times against the angels i mean seattle should be able to beat up on these teams and stay
01:46in the race but they've got to beat the a's and they got i think they got to win at
01:49least three
01:49out of four here joe i don't think two and two does anything for them i agree i i think
01:55they need
01:56to keep their foot on the gas and you said it last year right didn't they just they they went
02:01when
02:02towards the end of the season they were on some ridiculous hot streak weren't they and they rode
02:06that into the postseason like that's you're running out of games i mean that's what it's going to take
02:11in order to be able to overcome the deficit that you then the hole that you dug yourself
02:16so
