Going to Eleven

John McLaren gets some extra work tonight as the Mariners and Royals go to the bottom of the eleventh tied at two. The Royals got a man to third with two outs in the ninth and tenth and failed to score. The Mariers put men on first and second with one out in the top of the eleventh, but Dotel struck out Beltre and Lopez to end the threat.

Update: Emil Brown hits a sacrifice fly off Morrow to win the game in the bottom of the eleventh. I wonder why he didn't bring in Putz in that situation to try to strike out the batters. Or walk Brown to set up the double play.

The Mariners win streak ends and McLaren starts his managerial career on a down note. However, they did get a good game out of Felix Hernandez, something they'll need down the stretch.
