After falling to the Los Angeles Angels last night, 2-1, the Seattle Mariners are now one game back of Toronto and Boston for the second wild card spot with only two games left. Seattle’s quest for their first postseason berth since 2001 is now on life support but they are still alive. Tonight they will have their ace on the bump, Chris Flexen. Flexen has been their go-to guy all year. He is 14-6 with a 3.67 ERA, is 2-0 this year against the Angels, and the Mariners are 21-9 in his 30 starts. Seattle has won 10 of their last 12 and are 7-3 in their last 10 against the Halos at T-Mobile Park.
