CLEVELAND — There were some positives for the Mariners in Thursday’s series finale against the Guardians.
Mitch Garver threw out his first runner of the year behind the plate; Dylan Moore equaled his home run total from last year (eight); No. 9 hitter Ryan Bliss had a two-out, go-ahead double.
But in the end, the negatives ended up outweighing those positives, as Luis Castillo labored through five tough innings and the Mariners’ bats fell silent late in a 6-3 loss in Thursday’s series finale at Progressive Field.
