The Seattle Mariners looked to be on cruise control last night, opening a 7-0 lead against the struggling Angels with Felix Hernandez on the mound. Everything fell apart, and they ended up on the short side of a 10-9 loss, which came on the heels of another heartbreaking 1-0 loss in their previous game. This is a young team that has to have the steam taken out of them, and must come back against a very good Oakland team that has posted a winning road record and stands 11 games over .500. The A's seldom play down to losing teams, in fact they have done just the opposite - they have thrived against them at 42-12 in their last 54. Colon has been a big part of that at 10-1 in his last 11 vs. a losing club. Play on Oakland.
