From the Major Leagues….The Seattle Mariners have won two out of three from the Angels in Anaheim with yet another 1-run decision, a 4-3 win last night.

But, Seattle gains no ground on the A-L West leading Texas Rangers who beat the A’s, 6-2.  Texas still leads the division by 6-1/2 games with 43 left to play.

In the National League the Giants will try to shake a 4- game losing streak hosting the Mets for a 4-game set in the Bay area. SF’s record since the All-Star break is a dismal 9-and-21.

The Dodgers lead the West by a game and half now over the Giants.
