Rafael Montero

Abraham Toro homered for Seattle against the team that traded him across the diamond during batting practice, but the Houston Astros held off a ninth-inning rally to beat the Mariners 8-6.

J.P. Crawford had three hits, Mariners center fielder Kyle Lewis made a magnificent catch to save two possible runs and Seattle beat the Oakland Athletics 4-3.

The Seattle Mariners had a couple of rarities today. First, they were able to rough up Zack Greinke. Second, their thus-reliable bullpen imploded in the 8th inning giving up 5 runs en route to 7-5 loss to the Houston Astros at Minute Maid Park.

While not even 20 games into the 2021 season, this year's Seattle Mariners squad is already making their case to be dubbed the "Cardiac Kids".

The Seattle Mariners need help on the mound and made the move to bolstered their bullpen by acquiring right-handed reliever Rafael Montero from the Texas Rangers.

Derek Dietrich reached base four times in his Texas debut and the Rangers scored five runs in the eighth inning for a 7-4 win over the Seattle Mariners.
