Hernandez, Mariners look to move closer to first place

SEATTLE (Ticker) -- The Seattle Mariners look to inch closer to first place in the American League West as they aim for a three-game sweep of the Chicago White Sox on Sunday.

Felix Hernandez takes the hill for the Mariners, who trail the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (71-51) by two games in the AL West.

Jeff Weaver won his third straight start by throwing 7 2/3 innings and Kenji Jojima snapped a 3-3 tie with an RBI single in the sixth inning of Saturday's 7-5 win.

Hernandez (8-6, 3.86 ERA) looks to follow Weaver's impressive start with one of his own. Hernandez did not receive a no-decision in his last start, allowing one run and four hits in seven innings against Minnesota on Monday,

The Seattle ace is unbeaten in his last four starts, but is 0-1 with a 4.76 ERA in three starts vs. Chicago.

Jon Garland (8-8, 4.63) get the ball for Chicago, which has lost a season-high seven straight games. Garland has been horrible his last three starts, allowing 15 runs in his last 14 innings.

Jim Thome recorded his 39th career multi-home run game in Saturday's loss. He is nine homers shy of 500 for his career.
