Final
Mariners go for sweep at Baltimore
Aug 9, 2007 - 1:44 PM Seattle (62-49) at Baltimore (52-60) 7:05 pm EDTBALTIMORE (Ticker) -- The Seattle Mariners will go for a sweep of a three-game series when they visit the Baltimore Orioles on Thursday.
The Mariners have put 18 runs on the board in the first two games of the series, pounding Jeremy Guthrie on Wednesday en route to an 8-4 win.
Guthrie entered the contest tied for third in the league with a 2.98 ERA. After four innings with Seattle's hitters, that mark jumped to 3.22.
The Orioles will try to stop the run-scoring surge with righthander Daniel Cabrera (8-11, 4.90 ERA). The 26-year-old dominated in his last start, picking up a win at Tampa Bay by allowing just one run in seven innings.
Perhaps most importantly, Cabrera issued just one walk against the Devil Rays. Command has always been an issue for the 6-7 Dominican, who leads the American League in walks with 79.
The Mariners will counter with lefthander Horacio Ramirez (6-3, 6.68). The 27-year-old got knocked around by the Red Sox last Friday, allowing four runs and 10 hits in four innings. He earned a win over the Orioles on July 2, yielding two runs in seven frames.
