The Astros grew their division lead to 13 games with 66 remaining. Only a historic collapse could prevent a second consecutive crown.
SEATTLE, WASHINGTON - JULY 24: Scott Servais #9 of the Seattle Mariners hold a towel on Jesse Winker #27 cut nose after colliding with Jeremy Pena #3 of the Houston Astros during the second inning at T-Mobile Park on July 24, 2022 in Seattle, Washington.SEATTLE — Jose Altuve arrives at bat before those that hate him can settle into their seats. Houston’s leadoff man is loathed in all but one venue he plays, a pariah for a sign-stealing scheme he did not endorse but also did not stop.
If these three days represented as a measuring stick, the Mariners are still an American League West afterthought. The Astros grew their division lead to 13 games with 66 remaining. Only a historic collapse could prevent a second consecutive crown, a stated goal for any club but a secondary one for Houston.
Aggression seemed the team-wide approach against Robbie Ray. Ray won the American League Cy Young Award last season. Seattle signed him to a massive contract this winter to signal its intention to contend. The southpaw had surrendered seven earned runs across his past seven starts, a span of 46 ⅓ innings.
