Athletics vs. Seattle Mariners Prediction
I’m on the Mariners here. I’ve said before with the Athletics that far more often than not the Athletics’ best chance at getting a win from their starting pitching normally comes with JP Sears on the bump. However, when Sears took on the Mariners, that wasn’t the case. Seattle had just had Oakland’s number with Sears on the mound, and Woo was unbeatable against the Athletics. I think the Mariners salvage a split here and Woo keeps up his dominance over the Athletics. Give me Seattle at home in this one.
