Seattle at Cincinnati

Seattle has been a beast on the road at 16-7. The offense is seventh in baseball in runs scored and the Mariners are on a 19-9 run, including 12-4 on the road. The Mariners have ace Felix Hernandez (3-3, 2.47 ERA) going, on a 20-9 run in interleague starts. Cincinnati has a weak offense, #19 in runs scored, #29 in on base percentage. Cincinnati's injury-ravaged pitching staff took another hit when righty Tim Adleman (oblique) went on the 15-day disabled list. Reds' starter John Lamb (0-1, 5.79 ERA) has been battling a sprained left thumb and was rocked in his return to the mound, getting shelled for seven runs and 10 hits over four innings in a 15-6 defeat at Cleveland on Monday. The Reds are on a 16-41 run, 7-23 in interleague games, plus 17-37 in interleague games vs. a right-handed starter. The Reds' bullpen has also allowed 117 runs and 36 homers in 155+ innings, so the visitors hold all the cards. Take Seattle behind King Felix.
