        Re: Seattle Mariners (ESPN 2K5)

        M's Lose First Series at Fenway
        The Seattle Times

        Boston tore apart the Mariners at Fenway. Seattle, who has been cruising through opponents all season, finally met their match. The MLB's number one pitching staff allowed nine boston homers, and 28 runs in the series. There was no answer for the defending World Series champs, as they swept Seattle in three games. Gil Meche, Ryan Franklin and Joel Pineiro all recorded their first losses of the year.


        David Ortiz had 3 home runs and 9 RBI in the sweep.

        Game One - Boston 9, Seattle 0
        WP: Curt Schilling (3-1)
        LP: Gil Meche (2-1)
        HR: Ortiz (7,8), Nixon (8)
        Player of the Game: David Ortiz, 3-4, 2 HR, 5 RBI, 2 Runs

        Pitching Stats
        Gil Meche (SEA) - 4 IP, 4 ER, K, Loss
        Julio Mateo (SEA) - 4 IP, 5 ER, K
        Curt Schilling (BOS) - 9 IP, Shutout, 2 K's, Win

        Hitting Stats
        David Ortiz (BOS) - 3-4, 2 HR, 5 RBI, 2 Runs
        Trot Nixon (BOS) - 3-4, HR, 2B, RBI
        Mark Bellhorn (BOS) - 2-3, BB, Run, SB, 2B, 2 RBI

        Curt Schilling pitched a complete game shutout, and David Ortiz smashed two home runs, giving Boston the for sure win. Trot Nixon also had a home run in the game, his eighth of the year. Gil Meche allowed four runs in four innings for his first loss of the season, the M's pitching allowed 19 Boston hits.


        Game Two - Boston 7, Seattle 4
        WP: Tm Wakefield (2-1)
        LP: Ryan Franklin (4-1)
        S: Foulke (9)
        HR: Beltre (12), Ortiz (9), Damon (5,6), Varitek (6)
        Player of the Game: Johnny Damon, 4-5, 2 HR, 4 RBI, 2 Runs, 2B

        Pitching Stats
        Ryan Franklin (SEA) - 6 IP, 4 ER, K, Loss
        Rafael Soriano (SEA) - 2 IP, 3 ER, 0 K's
        Tim Wakefield (BOS) - 5.2 IP, 2 ER, 6 K's, Win

        Hitting Stats
        Johnny Damon (BOS) - 4-5, 2 HR, 4 RBI, 2 Runs, 2B
        David Ortiz (BOS) - 2-5, HR, 2 RBI, Run
        Adrian Beltre (SEA) - 3-4, HR, 3 RBI, Run, 2B

        Seattle could not touch Wakefield, or his knuckleball. Tim recorded 6 strikeouts, and only gave up a two run home run to Beltre in his near six innings pitched. Johnny Damon went yard twice and Ortiz added a homer giving the Red Sox the 7-4 win over the M's.

        Game Three - Boston 12, Seattle 8
        WP: Matt Clement (4-1)
        LP: Joel Pineiro (6-1)
        HR: Ramirez (8,9)
        Player of the Game: Manny Ramirez, 4-5, 2 HR, 6 RBI, 2B, 2 Runs

        Pitching Stats
        Joel Pineiro (SEA) - 2.2 IP, 6 ER, K, Loss
        Arthur Rhodes (SEA) - 2.1 IP, 2 ER, K
        Julio Mateo (ANH) - 3 IP, 3 ER, 2 K's
        Matt Clement (BOS) - 5 IP, 4 ER, 2 K's, Win

        Hitting Stats
        Manny Ramirez (BOS) - 4-5, 2 HR, 6 RBI, 2B, 2 Runs
        David Ortiz (BOS) - 3-5, 2 RBI, 2 Run, 2B, BB
        Pokey Reese (SEA) - 4-5, HR, 2 RBI, 2 2B, SB

        In a high scoring game, both teams put on a show. Manny Ramirez and Boston had the last laugh though. Ramirez hit two home runs and drove in six to complete the Boston sweep. Joel Pineiro, who has been having a sensational season, didnt even make it three innings, allowing six runs, for his first loss. He is scheduled to pitch game two of the Boston series at Safeco.

        Player of the Series (Offense): David Ortiz, 9-14, 3 HR, 9 RBI, 2B, 5 Runs
        Player of the Series (Pitching): Curt Schilling, 9 IP, Shutout, Win, 2 K's
        On Deck: at NY Yankees, May 9th-11th
        Chase for 116: 2005 M's (24-7) - 2001 M's (23-8)

            Re: Seattle Mariners (ESPN 2K5)

            I'm enjoying this one BCF. I agree with that other poster about it being a little unrealistic(mainly your pitching up until that BoSox series), but I'm not critisizing, you're doing a great job!

            A quick question though, how'd you pull of a three team trade? Was it offered to you?

                No, you cant do three team trades in the game. I just traded Shiggy to the Yanks for Felix Rodriguez, and then I traded Felix to the Indians for Arthur. It wasnt an actually "three team" trade, but I wrote it up that way. I wish the game would allow three team trades, maybe someday. Anyways, thanks for reading. And as for being realistic, I know I got off to a very hot start, but I started my NY series this morning and got shutout. I am not liking the AL East too much.

                    M's End Road Trip 1-5
                    The Seattle Times

                    The Yankees took two of three from Seattle at historic Yankee stadium. Kevin Brown pitched a shutout in game one and Jaret Wright pitched well in the third game, which turned out to be the rubber game of the series. The M's managed to take one game though, behind the pitching of Bobby Madritsch. Madritsch pitched eight innings and only allowed three runs to get the 5-3 win, Bobby is 5-0 this season.


                    Kevin Brown pitched a complete game shutout for his fifth win.

                    Kevin Brown pitched a complete game shutout and held the M's in check all night long. Jamie Moyer also went the whole game, but didnt have any run support to help his cause. Derek Jeter led off the game with a solo home run, his fourth of the year.

                        M's Aquire Cabrera, Re-sign Meche
                        The Seattle Times

                        Seattle has needed a DH all year, Bucky wasnt 100% and had a major slump in April, and Chris Snelling doesnt have the power the Mariners are looking for. For Seattle, the solution was in Florida. The M's traded third baseman Scott Speizio, outfielder Chris Snelling, AAA pitcher Aaron Williams and 300,000 cash to the Marlins, for 21 year old slugger Miguel Cabrera. The M's also signed starter Gil Meche to a 3 year, 2.5 million dollar contract extension. Meche is 2-2 this year.


                        Miguel Cabrera - Outfielder
                        Age: 21
                        2005 Stats: .326, 6 HR, 20 RBI, 18 Runs

                        Cabrera will be a great fit in a already powerful Seattle lineup. Ichiro and Reed bring speed, then Beltre, Sexson, Cabrera and Boone bring the power. Speizio had one RBI in 3 games for Seattle, and Snelling had 3 RBI with a .310 average for the M's in 12 games at DH. Aaron Williams was 2-0 with a 2.45 ERA in AAA Tacoma.

                        M's New Lineup
                        RF - Ichiro Suzuki
                        LF - Jeremy Reed
                        3B - Adrian Beltre
                        1B - Richie Sexson
                        DH - Miguel Cabrera (Aquired from Florida)
