Through 2 games of the ALCS
Jays have a 13% strikeout rate (batting)
Mariners, 31% strikeout rate
So of course Seattle is up 2-0 because baseball.

This yearβs #Mariners team is making its own history. It doesnβt need to lean on or be compared to 1995 to achieve relevance.

Not the average "fastball." The average PITCH. All of them.
That's faster than the average -fastball- the 2008 Cubs saw in the playoffs: 92.4.

The #Mariners playing in October is reminding me of someone I lost, who could never get enough of this baseball team regardless of its place in the standings.
I suspect many of you can relate.
Yes, she would. Thanks Jeff.

Canβt say the same about the other two ESPN guys on the Red Sox v Yankees broadcast.
Let's drop some scouting notes ahead of SD/CHC
1) SD probably has the hardest-throwing 'pen ever. Or close to it. This is 4sm/sinker, relievers, Aug/Sept (i.e., after Miller trade) dating back to 2008.
Since there's almost zero chance any bullpen before 2008 was throwing like this.. hardest ever?
Last game for me this year.

How/where #Mariners games will be broadcast next year will be determined in the future.
Today, my thoughts are with the ROOT Sports personnel who are losing their jobs.
