Mariners at Dodgers, 7:10PM PT, TV: SPNLA
The Mariners trot out James Paxton to face the Dodgers’ Brandon McCarthy.
The left-handed Paxton (0-1) started 2014 with the Mariners in April and then went down to Tacoma in AAA. He came back up to Seattle in August and stuck. He had a 6-4 record with a 3.04 ERA and a WHIP of 1.20 over the final two months of last year. He’s made one start this year, pitching six innings of four-hit ball, giving up two runs and losing.
McCarthy (1-0) hopes to go longer than the five innings he got in his first start. He gave up nine hits, four earned runs, struck out nine and won the game. In his career he’s 2-6 with a 3.88 ERA against Seattle, not that that means much.
Never any doubt. Congratulations, @AdrianTitan23! pic.twitter.com/jNP8maP6sa
