01:00ninth inning grand slam from none other than Cade Marlowe.Colby, what was your reaction when that ball went over the right field wall?And keep in mind, this is a family show.Yeah, I don't know.Can you enunciate the ninth inning grand slam a little bit more?I don't think you quite hit all the syllables.Grand slam.Yeah, you know, it's-
01:27You're feeling spicy tonight, man.It's true problem.We beat the Angels.It's my favorite thing in the world.So I'm actually in a good mood.I got to send out my favorite gift.Like it worked out great.That's right.
01:38So why are you being mean?Why are you being a hater tonight?It's just you just bring it out in me.I don't know what to tell you, man.All right.But yeah, it was obviously super exciting.You know, they load the bases and you're like, okay, the mirrors are pretty good with the bases loaded.I know it doesn't seem like they are, but they actually are.
01:56And, you know, you've got Estevez.isn't throwing a strike like all right they got some speed out on the bases maybe you get a walkand then you get a sack fly and then somehow of course you don't score any more than that but youpush this game to the ninth and you see what can happen you know then teosker does what teosker doesum yeah marlowe you know oh two count basically the same pitch twice in a row not really all thatclose on either of them and you're just kind of sitting there like ugh i mean we really about to havehave to have dylan more and try try and bail you out hereAnd then, you know, shame on Estevez for trying to slip the same pitch by Marlowe for the third time.
02:36Didn't go, didn't go well for Mr. Estabez as initially I thought, oh, well, that's a deep fly ball.That'll get a run.Like at the very, there's a run.And then we'll have to see if Dylan can get a hit.And it just kind of kept on going and going.And yeah, it was obviously super exciting.This is a game yet you really needed.You know, Shohay left the game.
02:58on the mound after the fourth and and that's huge because you do have the pitching matchup in theorythe rest of these games um and so if you could steal this one it takes a lot of pressure we talkedearlier in today's show about how you have to split you have to find a way to split youcannot drop two games in the standings to the angels you have to split but we also talked about howhard it would be to beat otani so we were thinking you had to go in this weekend series andkind of win two or three well thanks to kade marlow if you go on to this oneweekend series and you win two of these three games, you're the team that adds two games to yourledger against the Angels. And if you win all three now, bye bye to the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim,
03:41they're an afterthought at that point. So yeah, it's a huge win, obviously, and Marlowe'sgrand salami was much needed. You know, you kind of get to the point where you're like,oh, well, you know, this was a low probability win anyways and blah, blah, blah. At least Wu pitched well,and you know, you can kind of start to wrap your head around it.And then, uh, nope.Estevez comes in the guy that was picked for the all-star team ahead of Paul C.Wald.Oops.
04:08And, uh, ball don't lie.Yeah.Cade Marlow made him look like his, you fill in the blank.So sure.Yeah.It was a lot of fun.And again, it happened against the angels.And of course the angels are punks.
04:19Of course they throw at JP.Tell me, oh, he couldn't throw strikes.Yeah, that's why he threw it right at his backside.Come on.come on like we're not he was missing up he was missing on the on his on his arm side he wasn'tmissing that bad inside to lefties so don't tell me that wasn't intentional we'll see what what happensthere scott certainly thought so or at least somebody in the mirror his dugout thought soso we'll see what that does but yeah just just awesome anytime you can send phil nevin home crying
04:47it's a great it's a great night and and you know anytime you get the old tungsten armo doyle stat uh youknow you get to see that play out live it's it's a it's a great night so yeah yeah it was it wasa lot of emotions wrapped up in one swing this was a certified tungsten arm o'd Doyle moment becauseshow hey obviously had a great night had the home run off of isaiah campbell to make itthree one and the bottom of the eighth i'm sure we're all or at least most of us are familiar withthe tungsten arm o'doyle tweet but for those that don't know this was a tweet from a coupleyears ago from atMatatomic on Twitter
05:28says quote every time I see anangel's highlight it's likeMike Trout hit three home runs and raisedhis average to 528 whileShohei Otani did something that hasn't been donesince Tungsen Armo Doyleof the 1921Akron groomsman as the
05:44Tigers defeated the Angels8 to 3 of courseTungson Armo Doyle not areal person just a playon theis it is he isNo, no, he's not.If you look him up,
05:58if you look him up on baseball reference,yeah, that's true, that's true, that's true.That is a good, that is a good point, yes.Yeah, my mistake, my mistake.But,I don't respect all tungsten arm.Right, right.However, we did get a real
06:14tungsten arm O'Doyle tweet,which comes fromthe wonderful Miss Sarah Lange's who tweetedtonight right after Otani's home run,Shohei Otani is the first player with a home run and a stolen base in a game he started on the mound since Mudcat Grant on May 7th, 1964.And the Mariners win five to three.Wonderful.Yeah, I want to go back to the Marlow at bat real quick.
06:46You mentioned it.You know, Estevez goes fastball, top of the zone.Marlowe swings through it.next pitch fastball top of the zone marlo swings through it third time why not why not tried he he whiffed on the first two why not go back to the same spot same pitch 100 mile per hour fastball top of the zone marlow didn't miss this time pretty pretty sweet and um friend of the show chris chris w on twitter at zip kid c w wanted me to ask you colbyCade Marlow extension when?Well, you got to save that money for Otani this winter.Give Kayd the Otani money.No, not until you can convince people that you tried.
07:37Because as we know, trying is good enough for this front office.Just ask them about their trade deadline.Ha, you didn't think I could sneak that in, did you?Don't underestimate me, Ty.Well, they have, they're going to have endless money now that they've raised the season ticket prices again.Yeah, by like 53%Without making an official announcement, justYou know, just you know, sending it out in the email
07:58BlastBoy, I sure hope you sign Otani with those with those prices, butOr Cade Marlowe or Camaro extensionSomehow I think that money that they're going to make from raising those ticket prices is going right back in the pocket.You know, a certain ownership group because not possible.I mean, they did they did shave like six million dollars off of payroll and theyreinvested that right back in the team at the deadline by acquiringBizarro?
08:29I think is his name. Right. Right.$15 million pitcher Edward Bizarro.Right.Sure.That sounds like Tung Sanarmo Doyle to me.So yeah.Who's a real person?Who's a real person?
08:42Do you know what happens when you click on that link on baseball reference?Yeah.Yeah.Yeah.What happens, Ty?You go to Shohei Otani's page.Okay.Just check.
08:52Yeah.Yeah.Yeah.I thought that's what we were referring earlier.Yeah.I thought so too, but I was kind of like, does he know?Like, it's, it's, it's, it's one 17 in the morning here, Mr. Patnode.Well, it might not be quick on the draw.
09:05Uh, yeah.Although, to be fair, that has little to do with the time.True.Good point.Fair point.God, you're so spicy.I was with you.I'm on it.
09:16All right.So let's talk about the rest of this game.Let's talk about Brian Wu.And then let's get out of it.here.

10:22God, you're such a hater tonight.Jeez.Thank you again for making us.Your first listen after the Mariners 5 to 3 win over the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.You can catch game two of this series tomorrow on the Marrish hometown broadcast withSirius XM via the SXM app.All right.Brian Wu started this game and he got through the first five innings.
10:46Pretty okay.And then he was one pitch away from getting out of the six unscathed.Unfortunately,He was not able to do that.And the Angels with a couple of hits from CJ Crone and Mike Mustakis made this game two to one.And that was the end of Wu's night.The final line for Wu, six innings pitch, two earn runs on four hits, six strikeouts, two walks, three hard hit balls.What did you think about his night tonight?
11:15Colby.Yeah.You know, pretty good.you know and credit to Scott's service for not looking atWu and saying oh he's got 83 pitches we can try and get him for a 7thI thought I thought that was going to happen I thought for sure that was going to happenI convinced myself that was going to happen sure but yeah you know I meaninteresting note here Brian Wu did not give up a hard hit ball
11:42on his on his four seamer tonight so he threw it 30 times it was his primary pitch36%. 18 swings, seven whiffs.That's a really good ratio for a four-seem fastball,which is nice to see because, you know,Wu, his last few times out has been a little shaky.So, yeah, it was, you know, an incredibly effective pitch for him.Also broke out the two-scene fastball.It was a very fastball-heavy approach tonight.
12:10You know, he threw the four-seam or two-seam,53% of the time.Got 28 swings and 10 whiffs on those two pitches.slider was was pretty good three whiffs on seven swings but four called strikes on that pitch 41%called strike plus whiff on the on the old slider there so yeah only four balls only four of themput in play only one of them hard hit yeah woo was was good tonight um you know got bailed outi don't want to say he got bailed out got a little bit of lucky a little bit lucky in the first with thecheck swing double play but whatever stuff like that happens he also got
12:47unlucky when Crone got his little hit to kind of start the rally.It was pretty good pitch and he just kind of flipped it in there.Really,Wu just made the one mistake all night, the one really bad pitch all night.And it was the pitch immediately after the pitch clock violation that gave theAngels the lead.So unfortunate that that's how it kind of ended for him.But overall, it was a pretty good night.
13:06Good command.Not, not, I would say, you know, not great, but pretty darn good.And it's good to see Wu, you know, get some, get through the,first three innings, I think on like 27 pitches. That's huge because we talked about on the AM show,or I guess that's what we'll call it, the AM show. We talked about how you need Wu to not go three.He has to go five or six at the very least. He can't be a guy who's struggling to get throughthree or four. And he gave you six. He gave you six. And, you know, the Mariners for, you know,fortunately only had to use one of their high leverage guys tonight. I mean, it depends if you count
13:44spire or not, but spire should be available tomorrow. Munoz may be.Isaiah Campbell is a high leverage guy.He was the winning pitcher in this game, Colby.Yes.Pitcher wins, as we all know, very important stat.Very.So, yeah, by the way,a fun little note on on Statcast,
14:04just because it made me chuckle.Obviously, there was a mistake madebecause according to Stackass,Brian Wu threw a four-scene fastballthat had a spin of 136.136 rotations per minutewhich is like a really solidknuckleball so
14:25obviously that's a mistakebut yeahapparently Brian Wu's invented a new pitchtonightyeah it was interesting you know just becauseWu the spin rates were down on all of his pitchesthe velocity was down about half a tick on all of his pitchesbut the command was better so I don't know
14:46maybe that's an intentional thing.Maybe it is a sign of wearing terror.Like we talked about,the good news is that the Mariners have days off on Monday and again on Thursday.So they can get a little funky with Wu's clock here.They could skip him all together this next time through the rotation.They could push it back a couple days.They can reshuffle some guys.
15:04So when we talk about how does Wu get through the rest of the seasonif they're trying to keep him in the rotation,next week is a big part of that because, again,you get the two days off in four days.And you can kind of maneuver that around how you want.uh within reason so we'll see uh obviously it's a really good sign uh now you hope price millerhas a similar outing because he's also been pretty shaky the last few times out yeah so we'llsee on that we'll get there when we get there uh but for now the mariners are two and a half back
15:34of the third wild card in the american league and really two yeah uh and uh they also picked up a gameon the Astros who lost the Yankees tonight.So there are what, three and a half back of them?I think it's four.Four? Okay.So yeah. So picked up some ground.Got an awesome win.Tungstenarmo Doyle, Chohei Otani.
15:58Pretty good at it and pretty good night.So happy with it.Very happy with it.All right. You're listening to the Lockdown Marinus Postgame show.Thank you again for making us your first listen after the Mariners 5 to 3 win over the Los Angeles Angelsof Anaheim. You can catch game two of this serieson the mayor's hometown broadcast.Sirius XM via the SXM app tomorrow
16:17night. So you talked about ita little bit earlier.Do we actually think something is going to come ofJP getting hittomorrow or over the weekend?These two teamswasn't that long ago.It's a little over here.
16:35Two teams.Sure.Through hands.They did.Through a lot of hands.I wonder if Rendon'sgoing to be there with a cast to act as Mike Trout's like personal bodyguard because of courseTrout will stand in the back of the brawl that he he started. I don't even know if Trout's with
16:51the team right now, but if he was, he'd stand in the back. Will Archie Bradley? Was that who it was?Be there to break his wrist? Yeah. Who's JP going to beat the living snot out of? So who'swho's Dylan Moore going to like rip out of the pile? Yeah. Ooh. Um,yeah you know they're fake tough guys over in anaheim because they're a fake city too uh we've talkedabout this the donald of california uh so yeah uh i think it's possible you know nevin is a guy whowho thinks that he's like a cowboy but in reality he's just an idiot is is andrew wants on this teami don't know but if you see him or or someone opener tomorrow yeah if suddenly the pitching matchupchanges. Boy, that would be
17:42totally suspicious. And unlikePhil Nevin, who has neverever done anythinglike that. They play ball the rightway. Yeah, it's totally just a coincidenceif that happens. Yeah. It's ScottService's fault, clearly. Because it's alwayshis fault. Scott Service hit J.P. Crawford
17:58tonight. The Marinershave been hit more by the American LeagueWest than they've hit their opponent by like 10 to 1in the last five years. And it's ScottService's fault. Right.That son of a gun.So he's a villain he's a villain yeah like Nevin is an idiot he's also no idiot's the right word no he's a moron yeah yeah he's an absolute moron so uh yeah he'll he might start something i wouldn't be shocked at all but hey you know what just go in because they're desperate right now because they know if they lose two of these next three that's a long way back they're three and a half back at that point from the mariners even um and while they can make it up that is a lot of ground to make up for a team that's struggling while another team is aending. So we'll see what happens. But I did see somebody say that like,
18:45Fanduel has odds on a brawl tomorrow and they're like heavily favoring.They're being a brawl tomorrow. I don't know if that's true or not. I've never seenFanduel or, um, any of those betting sites. I've never seen them put odds on a brawl happening.But, you know, maybe. I don't know. Uh, honestly, though, I'm not really rooting for it.I just kind of want them to play ball because I don't, I don't want anybody to get hurt.I don't want any suspensions or anything like that. Like, yeah.that's yeah my my advice my two cents to the seattle mariners as fun as a brawl would be and you know us we are team brawl over hereas fun as fun as that would be you're on a really nice run here i don't know if risking suspension multi-game
19:27suspensions would be the smartest thing right now so they hit you let it go just let them you knowlook like the tools that they are and move on i have an idea though tie france can goafter him. Everybody else now, yeah.You just, yeah. Of course.Let Ty go.Deal with that. Although Ty's facing lefties in division tomorrow.So probably a day he's going to go three for four.Right. Because that's the only time Ty France can hit.
19:56Eventually, you guys are eventually coming to my side.At some point, there will be a plurality of people who say,Colby's right. We should, we should non-tender Ty Francis winner.You're checking all the boxes.Playing the greatest hits, Ty.Mean to tie.both ties me and tie france to be fair you both deserve it right with your performances tonight you both deserve iti thought my performance was pretty good tonight your cold open better than terrible better than teos you
20:29just don't get the reference better than who isn't better than teo better than teo's performance in the in the ninth inningOh, can we, for the love of God, can we move Julio out of the number two spot?We're back on that again.We're doing that again.Every at bat tonight was worse than the one before it.It was.It was.It was.
20:50The second to last at bat was really bad where he took like a hundred right down the pipe, just stared at it.For strike three?Yeah.How about on two and oh when he swung at a pitch that was like six inches off the inside corner?like yeah like it the upbats don't even make sense yeah so get him get gino is your best hitright well jp's your best hitter right now your second best hitter right now i mean maybe it'skid marlow but let's not push it your second best hitter right now is jean morphy it's good pointand tom will be in the lineup tomorrow against the lefty so you know what tom murphy leadoff guy
21:25let's do it i'm gonna i'm gonna say that stat that we discovered on uh ctz today which againPatreon.com forward slash control the zone.WRC Plus.Yeah, it was.It was a really good episode.We almost went two hours today.All baseball too.WRC plus leaders in Major League Baseball.
21:44Minimum 100 plate appearances since May 1st.Number one, Aaron Judge.All right.Yeah, sure.Number two, Shohay Otani.Number three, Tom Murphy.Tom Murphy's a hitting God right now.Yes.
22:03get him in the lineup.You know what?Hit Tom Murphy number two.Why not?Let's ride.I just said hit him lead off, but sure, you can piggyback all that.Oh, you said it.I don't listen to you.
22:15So just saying it should be Tom, a Eugenio tomorrow.Yep.Cade.Actually, Cade one.Cade should lead off.But in all seriousness,let's not start like the movement to move.Cade significantly up to lineup.
22:34No, no. Just put him down there. Like, just let him do his thing. Same with Canzone. Uh,you know, never start Rojas again. That's, that's a given. But, um, that's two, two games andyou're already over it. By the way, the can zone Rojas stack is like two for like 19.So far in their Mariners. Canzone had had a really nice hit to, to keep things going.Base is loaded and like when he hits home run all care. But.But anyway, let's in on a serious note here.Back-to-back lefties, right?We haven't seen lefties since the, I would call it the trade deadline, but I don't think
23:11the Mariners actually participated, so I'm not sure what to call it.But we haven't seen lefties since then.Lefty starters.How do you think the lineup shakes out?You got to have Murphy in there.I think Dimo's going to be in there.Sure.Yeah, or cabby.
23:27Or left field for Dmo, maybe, right field?Yeah, yeah.Oh, dude.are you going to are you going to reallyI think I wouldMarlowe on the benchyeahI think like it also we talked about this earlier
23:39I think you should heat check Marlowea little bit against lefties he's had a couple of big hitsagainst lefties let's seewhy notwho's who's who's thewhich lefty is it tomorrow is it Dettmersor is it?Yeah.
23:51Okayumslider guytougher matchupall right so maybemaybe he check him against Tyler Anderson thenyeah I would say soBut, you know, I think tomorrow you'll see Tom will catch.
24:07Demo, I think, will play one of the outfield spots.I'm assuming Teo will play the other one, which leaves the DH for Cal Rale open if you want to take that avenue.France will play first.Obviously, Ford will be on the bench.And then Caballero, I think probably plays second.So I think they'll put all the righties in there.I think your bench will be Canzone, Marlowe, Ford.and Rojas.
24:33Right.So that would be my guess.We'll see.Interesting.They sat Mike Ford against the ready.Yeah.Was that just because they wanted to give Teo another day off, half day off?Or is it because they don't want Ford in the line.
24:50They'd rather have Canzone and Marlowe in the lineup, which is the right decision.Yeah, it is the right decision.I mean, Mike Ford is, what, six for his last 47 or something like that?I saw something on Twitter yesterday.Probably.Yeah,probably.We're getting to the point, though, by the way,
25:09where Mike Ford doesn't make sense for this roster.Yeah.And, you know,he helped you stay afloat.So if that's it,if that's the extent of his contributions this year,then great.That's a roaring success.
25:22You crushed the Mike Fordreturn.You know, there's a chance,non-zero chance, too, that he slips through waivers.I don't know.if you'd want to go back to the miners but whatever i just i think that somebody like uh sam haggertyhelps you a lot more he can play multiple positions he's a switch hitter he's playing really well intacoma right now he can steal a bag like i just think that guy works better as the 26 guy especially
25:46if you trust can zone to play first you don't you don't need mike ford uh not this version of mikeford and i am interested to see if they'll they'll give can zone a day at first or not yeah we'll seeHe hasn't done it a lot.So kind of risk.We are, you know, we are a month away from rosters expanding, but keep in mind, it's one position player, one pitcher that they're going to call up.So I don't.Do you really want to try and stretch Mike Ford for an extra month if he's your worst player?Yeah, I don't know.
26:22I think Marley or I think I think Haggerty is the call here.Because you're pretty lefty now.like you're you have a good balance at least um so and i think you know if you go with haggertyhe can at least give you that lefty bat but he's primarily you want him to hit against leftiesnot righty so i think they should call up haggerty uh they're not going to do that um i don't knowwhy they wouldn't but if they're not going to maybe maybe it's shiner i i don't know i just don'tknow what mike for gives you with can zone in the fold now and the mariners pretty clearlydeciding today that Canzone is better than
27:01than Mike Ford. Because if you're ever going to give the veteran a dayover the young kid, it's probably when they're facing show Aotani.Yeah, but also, I mean, you just brought him in. You probably want to see whatyou can do. I don't know if it's necessarily like an indication of that, butFord didn't pinch it tonight against righties. Yeah. I don't know. We'll see.We'll see we'll seeSil Seth is a righty rightSo Sunday
27:29But for the like his firstLike for the first three months of Cory Klober's careerI was convinced he was left handedSo I don't really knowWait whatYeah I just saw Cory Klober was left handedUntil likeUntil like June 15th of his rookie year
27:44I was like oh he's a righty okayYeah there you goColby FaxHere on the Locked on Mirrors podcastYeah soI don't know. We'll see, I guess, on Sunday, right?If Ford's in the lineup.And then if not, then, yeah,
28:00maybe that's a pretty clear indication of what's going on there.It seemed like a decent idea to maybe use him.And by the way, does it Silseth?Silseth.Yeah, whatever.He is right-handed.So, ooh, got that one right.I don't know. It just feels like you have, like, Estabez loves his fastball.
28:24ball the bases are juiced like that feels like a pretty prime moment to go to forward on your benchto get the lefty righty and they didn't and they could have done it for canzone and it would havemade sense they could have done it for marlowe and it would have made sense and it would have made senseand there's like yeah no so i don't know we'll see but didn't think we're going to talk micfor tonight but yeah well go savannah bananas yeah thank you kade marlowthank you that was that was pretty rad so impressed with kate marlowe sofar and hope it continues because he's been a hell of a lot of fun to watch.All right.
