206 Clicks: Mariners, Sounders And Storm Are All Tuesday Victors

Seattle Mariners 3, Oakland Athletics 2 [box]: Jason Vargas bounced back after disappointing performances in his last two starts. The left-hander struck out 10 and limited the A's to three hits and two runs. Brendan Ryan broke the 2-2 tie with a base hit in the eighth inning on Tuesday night. I made many interesting observations while I attended the scarcely attended baseball game at Safeco Field, but one standout of Tuesday night's win was the FUR-BUSH chants that broke out when Charlie Furbush was on the mound. Even though the Mariners are the second worst team in the American League, this simple win satisfied me. Head over to Lookout Landing for more in-depth analysis on the game. Next game: Wednesday, Seattle (32-44) vs. Oakland (36-39), 12:40 p.m. PT, ROOT Sports, 14.5 games back.
