Severino slipped early, but it was the Mariners who tripped and fell on their face.

The Seattle Mariners dropped game two against the Athletics in Sacramento, to a score of 6-2. Logan Evans couldn’t hold it together, and Luis Severino slipped but stayed on his feet to get the job done.


The vagrant Athletics hosted the Mariners for game two

To play the game, a minor stadium cobbled for view

Severino started on the hill for the gold and green

While Logan Evans was the man for the visiting Seattle team

Right away on the mound, Luis Severino twice did slip

His foot fled from under, and he landed on his hip

The slip on the mound was rather quickly corrected

And in the first inning, three strikeouts collected

Luis faced the minimum in the next two innings he’d see

While Evans found folly in the bottom of inning three

Butler hit up the middle, and Crawford failed to glove

The ball hurt Kurtz to first, and Rooker did shove

Rooker’s home run gave the A’s three on the board

But the hungry home team would quickly gain more

Shea Langeliers reached second on the double

An Andujar rbi double then finished that trouble

The question then was, could the sailors answer back

To undo this knot, Arozarena provided the slack

A single gave him one base, and then he stole dos

Now a 20-20 season, he has half a decade of those

But home was the base, where he really wanted to go

For that he just needed a single from teammate Polo

The shutout avoided, Seattle was finally on the board

Unfortunately that, was the only time they scored

The case was not the same for the Sacramento team

Who after two K’s in the fifth, quickly regained steam

Langeliers struck again, this time sending it over the wall

Another Andujar rbi double, and Logan Evans did fall

He finished his night having struck seven hitters out

But six runs on seven hits balances that with some doubt

The blame of the loss is shared, divided by many

If a ball went to shortstop, it was likely not fielded by any

Julio was the only Mariner to get on base on two occasions

One run on six hits and eleven strikeouts is too much abrasion

A nod to the pen, who pitched 3.1 innings without damage

Kowar had a clean two with a K, and Vargas for 1.1 did manage

The day was lost for Seattle but hope tomorrow remains

The series will be decided, in the upcoming third game

Logan Evans may have some more skill maturing to do

But lucky for Mariners fans, in the next game they get Woo

(And who knows with the deadline.. maybe some new names in the crew...?)
