The Mariners went 4-2 in August and are now 19-17 when I attend. The Mariners scored 20 runs and their opponents 22, for a run differential of just two, but the 8/31 game really fudged the numbers. The average attendance was 22,559 vs 23,265 in July.
Our
starting pitchers had a higher combined ERA at 3.12 vs 2.92 in July.
The starters accounted for 75% of the innings pitched compared
to 73% in July. They accounted for 73% of the runs given up.
Our OBP was only 26 points higher than our average, compared to 49 points in July. Of our 45 total hits in July, 28.9% were extra base hits compared to 25.9% in July. Thames, Ackley (surprise!), and Jaso were the best hitters.
